This document discusses the need for APIs and OAuth in enabling app development while maintaining security. As cloud computing and mobile devices increase, more apps are being created, and APIs allow businesses to participate in this ecosystem. However, traditional security models can hinder rapid app development and adoption. OAuth provides a solution by allowing secure authorization without storing credentials, with only necessary permissions granted on an opt-in basis. An example is given of a trucking company using OAuth to securely enable third party apps to access vehicle and load data. The document promotes SOA Software's OAuth server product as a way to create an open developer platform while maintaining security.
The notion of API security & management in which enterprise architects, app developers and IT security experts work in harmony is great in theory. The reality, according to new research from Ovum, is much more scattered.
Watch Ovum IT Security Analyst Rik Turner as he dives into new primary research on how companies are really managing API security. Then watch the lively conversation as Rami Essaid, CEO of Distil Networks, explains why APIs are becoming such an increasingly attractive target for hackers. Lastly, Shane Ward, Senior Director of Technology at GuideStar, will share best practices and pitfalls to avoid when managing both free and paid access to your APIs.
Key takeaways will include:
- How to benchmark your organization's API security and internal processes against your peers
- Why CIO and/or CISO visibility into how API security is managed across the enterprise is so critical
- How to map your business requirements to your API security strategy
- A primer on API security controls, including geo/org fencing, token governance, dynamic access control lists and advanced rate limiting
- Why heavy "application services governance" software suites are the wrong approach

Enter data driven security. This session at I Love APIs 2014 covered how your API data can help you gain insights to traffic anomalies and security/privacy abuse. And how you can mitigate risks using data driven API security controls.
Security as an Enabler for the Digital World - CISO PerspectiveApigee | Google Cloud
A successful API strategy requires a strong partnership between the business, IT, and security functions. Rather than as a hindrance, security increasingly is viewed as a business enabler, with CISOs and CSOs playing a critical role in implementing “guardrails” for safe, secure and compliant API services and security architectures free of unnecessary complexity.
Ultimately, a secure API platform enables developers and DevOps to focus on innovation—by improving the mobile user experience and deploying apps in the cloud, with appropriate security controls built-in. In this webcast, Apigee’s Subra Kumaraswamy and Saba Software CSO Randy Barr will explore how CISOs and CSOs partner with IT and business leaders for a safe and secure journey to cloud, SaaS, and mobile services.
Join to learn about:
- The role of the security officer in helping IT and business meet objectives
- How smart and secure API guardrails remove friction in consuming APIs while protecting sensitive data exposed via APIs.
- Best practices that work for an API centric enterprise

API Security: Securing Digital Channels and Mobile Apps Against HacksAkana
More and more enterprises today are doing business by opening up their data and applications through APIs. Though forward-thinking and strategic, exposing APIs also increases the surface area for potential attack by hackers. To benefit from APIs while staying secure, enterprises and security architects need to continue to develop a deep understanding about API security and how it differs from traditional web application security or mobile application security.

Securing Public Cloud IoT APIs, and Building Private Mesh Trust Domains and Enclaves of Privacy to Integrate a Mesh of “Things” with Integrity & Availability
Digital is disrupting the physical world with new business models. In this presentation from SOA Software VP of Product Marketing, Sachin Agarwal, learn how APIs are used to drive new digital channels securely and safely.
Sachin Agarwal, SOA Software VP of Product Marketing, explains the frenzy around the mass development and adoption of APIs. In this presentation, he describes the business and technology implications of developing an API stratgy.
Just a few years back, lack of a standard way to document, govern or describe a contract for the APIs acted as a deterrent to API adoption within the enterprise. WSDL 2.0 and WADL provided early support, but they couldn’t truly capture the essence of RESTful APIs. Recently we have seen the emergence of several description languages. New ways to describe and document APIs have emerged such as Swagger, RAML, API Blueprint and others, each taking a slightly different approach.
The enterprise has learned from the consumer API movement and recognized the value of creating developer communities to drive the adoption and productive use of APIs. Building an API community internally, however, requires a different approach from what has worked in the consumer space. Business objectives for APIs and measurements of success tend to be different for internal APIs. Security and access controls are not the same, of course, and back-end systems tend to be quite a lot more complex in the enterprise than they are in public-facing API situations. This webinar explores the challenges and best practices inherent in building an internal API community that serves an enterprise’s business and technological goals.
The Business Value for Internal APIs in the EnterpriseAkana
- The value of internal API programs
- How APIs and SOA fit together
- Deployment patterns for Internal APIs
- Architecture concerns about API Gateways and ESBs
As enterprises embrace APIs, some very specific Enterprise API Adoption patterns and best practices have started emerging. In this session, Laura Heritage, Principal Solutions Architect at SOA Software, will talk about the most common enterprise API patterns and will discuss how enterprises can successfully launch an API program.
Both SOA and API management technology have important things to say about the future capabilities of your IT infrastructure. API technology brings a strong focus to the consumption of your backend IT resources within a well-managed community of API developers and mobile app developers.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

– Simple Trust
10. Speedy App Development
• Decouple your business processes from the
App development process.
• Do not bog things down with traditional
security models
– Imagine just the legal agreements
– Storing user credentials is too daunting –
both for App developers and App users
11. Speedy App Adoption
• Businesses contain sensitive information
and enable sensitive transactions
• For high speed App adoption, Customers
need to trust them
12. Platform Security
• You need a way to remove the friction that
security introduces into the equation
• You need to allow Apps to participate in a
secure relationship:
– Opt in ‘Just in Time’
– Without storing credentials
– With only the required permissions
– With the ability to Opt out
13. The Result
• App developers can build without friction
• Businesses don’t need to limit their
ecosystem
Its up to the customer
14. An OAuth Example
• A manufacturer, Trux, produces very advanced ,
highly automated equipment to trucking
companies
15. An OAuth Example
• Trux collects a great deal of confidential
information about the semi and his/her loads
–
–
–
–
–
Personal data
Equipment data
Satellite tracking data
Service, mechanical information
Load types, delivery info
16. An OAuth Example
• Trux would like to create an open platform for App
development
– Apps to be deployed on the semis
– Apps to be sold to the trucking companies
– Apps to be sold to the drivers
17. An OAuth Example
• For example, an App developer wants to build an
App called SafeTrucking that helps the driver
determine the risk of a route based on his:
–
–
–
–
Load
Crime stats
Equipment
Route
18. An OAuth Example
1. Driver downloads the SafeTrucking App and
opens it
2. Driver is directed to Trux, whom he trusts, to log
in with their credentials
3. They are presented with a screen asking if the
SafeTrucking App can retrieve the required data
from Trux
4. If confirmed, Trux issues a token to SafeTrucking
that they can use to retrieve the data securely
5. The driver can view the permissions granted, optout, or increase the permission scope
19. Do you need an OAuth Server?
• Are you trying to create an open platform for App
development?
If so, you need one
