Issue 170: DevSecOps approach to API security, F5 vulnerabilities, ten API integration trends
Brief
This week, we have an article on applying a DevSecOps approach to API security, by utilizing a shift-left and protect and monitor right approach; a pair of vulnerabilities patched by F5; views on the top 10 API integration trends by Brenton House: and finally, a view on the rise of bot attacks against APIs.
Article: Taking a DevSecOps approach to API security
This week, Doug Dooley has published an article on how a DevSecOps approach could be applied to API security . It describes how an approach of shift-left and protect and monitor right could result in more secure APIs by bringing API development more in line with well-established processes for application development.
Dooley describes how a traditional approach to API security is overly reliant on protection afforded by API gateways and content delivery networks (CDNs).
