Introduction:
- APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) play a critical role in the modern software ecosystem.
- They enable applications to communicate with each other, exchange data, and perform various tasks seamlessly.
- However, APIs are also vulnerable to various security risks, including unrestricted resource consumption.
- In this article, we will explore the risks and causes of unrestricted resource consumption in API3, as well as prevention strategies.
Working Principle of API3:
- API3 is an API management platform that provides a range of features for API developers and managers.
- The platform allows users to create, deploy, and manage APIs securely and efficiently.
- API3 supports various types of APIs, including RESTful APIs, GraphQL APIs, and WebSocket APIs.
- The platform also offers a range of security features, such as rate limiting, authentication, and access control.
