Ironclad APIs: An Approach for Application Security Testing
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are a set of operations used for accessing a web application.
Today, the "API economy" is quickly changing how the world interacts. Everything from photo sharing, to online shopping, to hailing a cab is happening through APIs. Because of APIs, technical innovation is happening at a faster pace than ever. If you already write software, you are probably familiar with APIs, as they are fast becoming the standard base for application development, from standard communication of database to application out to the Internet of Things.
