03 - Protecting your API

The internet is an unsafe and scary place and that's where your API will live. The minute you publish it to the world you can take for granted, there will be hacking attempts ranging from the script kiddie running some random thing on their computer to the person searching for something new to break into.  In this episode, we share some tips on what you should be aware of when starting a new API project, what's the bare minimum in terms of security and what you should think about when your platform grows big!  Enjoy!  Share any thoughts that come to mind, on our website pimpmyapi.com or find us on our Facebook page.  Reach out to us if you feel strongly about anything we said, or if you have suggestions on what we should talk about.  Want to be a guest speaker on the show? Sure thing! Send us a note about that too!
