Course Overview
You learn how to safeguard your APIs in this course. You examine the potential security issues with your APIs. You gain knowledge about OAuth, which is the main REST API authorization technique. JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) and federated security will be covered. Additionally, you learn how to protect your data from dangerous queries, send requests securely over a public network, and secure your data for Apigee users.
Using the Apigee API Platform from Google Cloud, you will learn how to design, construct, secure, deploy, and manage API applications. Through a combination of lectures, classes, practical labs, and support materials.
The series "Developing APIs using Google Cloud's Apigee API Platform" is currently in its second course. Enroll in the Google Cloud's API Development course after completing this one.

FAQs
A: REST APIs enable Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption and use HTTP. TLS is a standard that ensures that data exchanged between two systems (a server and a server or a server and a client) is encrypted and unaltered while maintaining the privacy of an internet connection.
A: Always use TLS
Every web API should use TLS (Transport Layer Security). TLS protects the information your API sends (and the information that users send to your API) by encrypting your messages while they're in transit. You might know TLS by its predecessor's name, SSL.
