API Security

Learn from Industry Leaders about:

• Secure API Design: Learn best practices for building secure APIs from the ground up, including threat modeling, secure design patterns, and continuous security assessments using tools like OpenAPI for reliability, and robust API schemas.
• API Vulnerabilities and Mitigation: Gain insights into the OWASP API Security Top 10 vulnerabilities, secure coding practices, and API gateway security. Learn effective mitigation strategies and gain detecting and addressing vulnerabilities in real-world scenarios.
• DevSecOps and API Lifecycle Management: Integrate security throughout the API lifecycle using CI/CD pipelines, Git, and automation tools for enforcing API security policies. Validate API quality and compatibility, while maintaining ongoing security. Learn about DevSecOps practices and agile and DevOps workflows.
• Authentication and Authorization Protocols: Master the use of OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and JSON Web Token (JWTs) to secure APIs. Learn best authentication and authorization practices, avoid pitfalls, and ensure secure user and API interactions. Understand token management, session security, and multi-factor authentication for API protection.
• API Security Testing and Monitoring: Leverage tools like penetration testing, automated testing, and runtime protection for continuous API security. Implement monitoring for real-time detection and response to security incidents.
• Compliance and Regulatory Considerations: Ensure API security meets GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS requirements. Align practices with auditing and reporting requirements.Implement security controls for compliance and robust data protection.
