A web API is an efficient way to communicate with an application or service. However, this convenience opens your systems to new security risks. API Security in Action gives you the skills to build strong, safe APIs you can confidently expose to the world. Inside, you’ll learn to construct secure and scalable REST APIs, deliver machine-to-machine interaction in a microservices architecture, and provide protection in resource-constrained IoT (Internet of Things) environments.

risks.
API Security in Action gives you the
skills to build strong, safe APIs you can
confidently expose to the world. Inside,
you’ll learn to construct secure and
scalable REST APIs, deliver machine-to-
machine interaction in a microservices
architecture, and provide protection in

3. Security is more important than ever
Web APIs are the foundation of
interconnected IT architecture.
With applications now dependent
on third-party apps and services
for essential tasks, the threats are
increasingly complex and the need
to secure them is more critical than
ever.
Learn how today!

4. A complete resource
RESTful web services, microservices,
the Internet of Things, and cloud-
hosted applications all bring unique
security challenges that demand new
approaches to API security.
API Security in Action shows you how
to create secure web APIs that you
can confidently share with your
business partners and expose for
public usage.
