Review: good book
Review: I work as a Solution architect in the public sector, and have many years of designing software. My current initiative requires me to understand API specific security practices in detail, and the reason i bought this book after much research on multiple books. I found this book to be an excellent read with a broad coverage on the subject of API security, including TLS, OAuth, OIDC, JWS/JWE and Patterns to cover multiple use cases . Prabath does an excellent job of initially introducing the reader to the general security design principles for designing API's and then takes the reader through a sample API implementation (developed using Spring Boot and Maven). He starts with a basic API, with only TLS specific protection, and then extends through multiple chapters to include an API gateway, OAuth 2.0 protection. All of this is done step by step with very detailed instructions. As such in my view not only is it great for someone who want the design exposure, but also is hands down in development. Once this is done, Prabath introduces us to JWS/JWE, with great detail in both the token structures and also the difference between compact and JSON serialization. Again there are sample applications to enable the reader to get a grasp of how the technology works in practice. I found the native mobile channel based API security and also Token Binding chapters to be particularly interesting. In those Prabath introduces us to PKCE and details out the Token Binding concepts, and why we need to do so for added security. There are also excellent chapters which introduce the reader to OIDC, Federation; where SAML/JWT based extensions to OAuth is discussed, OAuth 2.0 specific security to consider, and Patterns. The last 2 of these (OAuth 2.0 security and Patters are exceptional, and a must read for any solutions architect). There is also a ton of references to RFC's which will enable to reader to extend their knowledge as they read this book. Overall, i would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to get a detailed understanding on API specific security principles from ground up. A must read I would say for any developer, solutions architects who wants to design better and more secure API's.
