FAQs
✅ What is an API and how does it work?
An API, or Application Programming Interface, allows different software applications to communicate with each other. It works by defining a set of rules and protocols that enable different systems to request and exchange data. For example, when you use a weather app on your phone, it communicates with a remote server via an API to fetch the latest weather information.

✅ Why is API security important?
API security is crucial because APIs often handle sensitive data and critical functions. Without proper security measures, APIs can become vulnerable to attacks such as data breaches, unauthorized access, and other malicious activities. Ensuring API security protects your data, maintains user trust, and prevents potential financial and reputational damage.

✅ What are some best practices for securing APIs?
Best practices for securing APIs include using strong authentication methods (like OAuth 2.0), encrypting data in transit and at rest, validating all inputs to prevent injection attacks, implementing rate limiting to protect against DDoS attacks, and regularly monitoring and logging API activity to detect and respond to suspicious behavior.
