Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for fast and accurate identification of message-based application programming interface (API) calls in applications. A set of compliance rules is obtained from a compliance rule store. A request to analyze an application is received. An application analysis is performed by scanning the application to identify one or more public APIs invoked by the application. The set of compliance rules are enforced on the application based at least in part on the application analysis.
