API Strategy

Developing a well thought out API is a very crucial task in a digital transformation journey and it helps provide a positive outcome for businesses. From ideation to monetization, we understand the need of having a well-defined plan that will make the entire process run smoother and help identify and potential roadblocks.
Since the enterprises now require more than a service only view but need an integrated view of the digital transformation process, we follow a custom approach:

Build, Test & Deploy

We follow an API-first development approach that starts with integration in mind. This provides a systematic approach to ensure that the API developer has consistent and reusable APIs. We do not consider API as “just another piece of software." Instead, we think of an API as a software component with:

Once the API is built, it will go through rounds of API testing to ensure that it is functioning as expected. If the test is completed with no problems it can move on to the next lifecycle stage. We use test automation tools to seamlessly integrate into the DevOps processes of continuous delivery and deployment.

API Security

Different APIs can use different protocols and APIs tend to expand over time, so properly securing API is a key challenge many organizations face today. The modern-day development practices also affect API security. There are no set standards to follow, and the uniqueness of each API needs to be taken into consideration. But understanding the security pain points of each organization we have set the best practices to follow,

Secure identities clearly along with role-based access control (RBAC)
Have smaller and more context-driven calls, ensuring that the defence layers can be more effective against attackers
Consider zero-trust principles
Limit the API calls exposed, move callers to new APIs and actively monitor and sunset unused calls
Review API designs with offensive/white hat security experts to help find gaps
