Practical, battle-tested techniques to recognize and prevent attacks on your APIs.
Hackers know how important your APIs are, and they also know how to find the weak spots in your API security. As a result, APIs have become principal vectors of attack against apps and sites. Secure APIs: Design, build, and implement shows you reliable methods you can use to counter cracks, hacks, and attacks on your internal and external APIs.
In this innovative new book, you'll learn:
About the technology
APIs are the primary way to share data and services privately inside applications and publicly with customers and partners. Unfortunately, they're also a prime target for cyberattacks. Here's the good news! There are proven strategies for finding vulnerabilities, locking out intruders, and building APIs that are secure by design.
About the book
Secure APIs teaches you to design, implement, and deploy secure APIs, providing clear examples of how attackers exploit weak authentication, insufficient constraints, and flawed architecture. In this practical book, you'll dissect the OWASP Top 10 API security risks and explore techniques to harden your APIs, establish real-time monitoring, and prepare for fast incident response. Case studies from e-commerce, ridesharing, and other high-visibility targets show you how to deploy APIs that stay secure in production.
What's inside
For software developers and architects, cybersecurity professionals, and QA engineers. Examples are in Python.
About the author
José Haro Peralta is head of cybersecurity strategy at APISec, and author of Microservice APIs. He's also the founder of microapis.io and apithreats.com.
