Introduced API Discovery and API Abuse Detection. API Discovery maps API endpoints by normalizing paths using unsupervised learning and cardinality. API Abuse Detection uses volumetric anomaly detection (adaptive rate limiting based on request frequency per endpoint) and sequential anomaly detection (using Markov Chains to model valid request flows and flag deviations) to identify malicious bot traffic targeting APIs.
