Detect API enumeration attacks (BOLA/IDOR, OWASP API1:2023) by writing SIEM detection rules that flag sequential or UUID identifier iteration, parameter tampering, and mixed 200/401/403 response patterns from API gateway and WAF logs. Use when investigating suspected object-level authorization abuse, building threat-hunting queries for API access-control bypass, or hardening API logging/rate-limiting against enumeration.
