All of these security features are supported by IBM API Connect, tailored to the specific needs and use cases of each organization.
For example, if an organization requires publishing APIs for external entities over the internet, recommended security measures include:
* TLS Mutual Authentication
* Rate Limiting
* OAuth
* Client ID and Client Secret
* Digital Signature using JWT
* SQL Injection Protection
Similarly, other organizations may have different security requirements, such as:
* **Enhanced Portal Security: ** Implementing OAuth, LDAP, and Basic Authentication.
* **Integration with IAM Frameworks: ** Integrating API Connect with other unified IAM frameworks like Keycloak.
IBM API Connect provides a comprehensive set of security features, allowing organizations to choose the most appropriate security measures based on their specific needs and risk tolerance.
