What is E-Commerce API Security?

Understanding the threats to your revenue—and how to stop them

Your Revenue Runs on APIs

Every customer interaction on your e-commerce store is an API call. Product searches, inventory checks, cart operations, and checkout flows—all powered by APIs that attackers are actively targeting.

Product Search
GET /api/products?q=shoes
Inventory Check
GET /api/inventory/SKU-12345
Cart Operations
POST /api/cart/add
Checkout & Payment
POST /api/checkout

The Threats You Face

E-commerce APIs are prime targets. Attackers know that every API request represents potential revenue— and they're exploiting that at scale with automated attacks.

Scraping Bots
Competitors harvest prices and inventory to undercut you
Card Testing Fraud
Stolen cards validated against your checkout before being used
Inventory Hoarding
Bots hold items in cart, blocking real customers during flash sales
Promo Abuse
Automated systems exploit coupons and loyalty programs at scale

E-Commerce Security FAQs

Common questions about protecting your e-commerce APIs

Traditional WAFs protect against known attack signatures (SQL injection, XSS). G8KEPR focuses on API-specific threats: business logic abuse, bot automation, and fraud patterns. We work alongside your WAF, adding intelligent protection that understands e-commerce behavior. Your WAF blocks OWASP threats; G8KEPR stops bots scraping your catalog and fraudsters testing stolen cards.
