How does API security work?
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) need to be secured against dangers such as unauthorised access and malicious attacks. This is known as API security. It guarantees the security of the information and features made available via APIs, preserving the privacy, accuracy, and accessibility of the services.
What makes API security crucial?
Because APIs frequently grant access to sensitive data and essential capabilities, API security is essential. Organisations and their users are exposed to serious risks when using insecure APIs, which can result in data breaches, unauthorised access, and service interruptions.
What is the Top 10 OWASP API Security, and what makes it significant?
The Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) has identified the top ten most significant API security threats. It is significant since it offers recommendations on how to reduce the risks associated with the most common security flaws in APIs. It assists developers and security experts in concentrating on crucial aspects to enhance API security.
How does OAuth improve API security, and what does it entail?
Often used for token-based authentication and permission, OAuth is an open standard for access delegation. It permits the sharing of user data across unaffiliated services without disclosing passwords. By offering a safe method of granting access to resources without disclosing credentials, OAuth improves API security.
