Who this book is for

This book is a perfect companion for security professionals responsible for API security. For AppSec teams, there is a focus on security tooling and integration and guidance on how to build an AppSec program targeting API security. For SecOps teams, there is in-depth coverage of API protection and monitoring to protect APIs at runtime.

The book is intended to be a reference for API developers, helping them understand the threats and attacks their APIs are likely to face and how to defend against the most common attack types, with a focus on API design first to enable shift-left for API security.

Finally, the book will appeal to system architects needing to understand best practices for secure API design and implementation.
