Open API security: Clarity instead of obscurity

About the webinar

Application programming interfaces, or APIs, have become a hidden part of everyday life. It is hard to imagine a client-server application without an API under the hood today. For several years now, the most advanced high-tech companies have been offering open APIs with well-designed documentation for their services as another, efficient way to communicate with their clients. Some industries are only beginning to develop their own open API ecosystems, which has made the issue of security highly relevant for them.

Key findings

  • The differences between the hardening of a typical API and an open API
  • What you should do at different stages of software development to harden an API
  • Types of additional security hardware/software that can help protect APIs
