🔐 *How to Secure Your APIs – A Practical Guide*

APIs are the backbone of modern apps — but without security, they become open doors to attacks. Here's how to lock them down effectively:

---

*1. Use Authentication & Authorization*
- Implement *OAuth2*, *JWT*, or *API keys*
- Enforce *role-based access control (RBAC)*

---

🔐 *2. Validate Inputs Strictly*
- Sanitize user inputs
- Use strong data validation (e.g., Joi, Yup)
- Prevent SQL & NoSQL injection

---

📦 *3. Rate Limiting & Throttling*
- Control request frequency to avoid abuse
- Use tools like *NGINX*, *API Gateway*, or *Cloudflare*

---

📜 *4. Use HTTPS Everywhere*
- Encrypt all data in transit
- Never expose APIs over HTTP

---

🕵️‍♂️ *5. Monitor & Log*
- Track unusual behavior
- Use centralized logging (e.g., ELK, Datadog)

---

🧱 *6. CORS & Firewall Rules*
- Restrict allowed origins
- Protect using *WAFs* and IP whitelisting

---

Secure APIs = Safe apps + Protected data + Trusted users
Build smart. Build safe.
