Abstract The API used to access cloud services typically follows the Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture style. RESTful architecture, as a commonly used Application Programming Interface (API) architecture paradigm, not only brings convenience to platforms and tenants, but also brings logical security challenges. Security issues such as quota bypass and privilege escalation are closely related to the design and implementation of API logic. Traditional code level testing methods are difficult to construct a testing model for API logic and test samples for in-depth testing of API logic, making it difficult to detect such logical vulnerabilities. We propose RESTlogic for this purpose.… More >

Abstract With the current explosion of mobile applications and smart devices, more organizations are beginning to expose Web APIs, which makes APIs more widely used. How can these APIs be managed and utilized safely and effectively for businesses? It is not easy to say. Today's Web services mainly include traditional structured WSDL and unstructured RESTful. A RESTful architecture can effectively constrain and help to achieve a simpler, lighter, and more scalable system. How to uniformly organize and merge RESTful APIs is also a problem to be solved. To solve the above problems, this article has designed an API management system that… More >
