UpGuard

UpGuard is a cybersecurity platform that helps organizations manage and reduce their cyber risk. Its products cover third-party vendor risk management (Vendor Risk), attack surface management and external threat monitoring (Breach Risk), and AI-powered security questionnaire automation and trust center tooling (Trust Exchange). The UpGuard CyberRisk API exposes the platform programmatically — vendors and security ratings, risks and vulnerabilities, domains and IPs, data leak disclosures, identity breaches, typosquatting, questionnaires, subsidiaries, labels, notifications, and webhooks — authenticated with an API key from CyberRisk account settings.

UpGuard publishes 18 APIs on the APIs.io network, including breaches API, bulk API, dataleaks API, and 15 more. Tagged areas include Company, Cybersecurity, Third-Party Risk Management, Attack Surface Management, and Vendor Risk.

The UpGuard catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

UpGuard’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 27 more developer resources.
