API security is no longer just a concern; it’s a critical priority for businesses. With APIs serving as the backbone of modern applications, they’ve become a primary target for attackers.

One of the most critical elements of modern information security is encryption. Encryption is a complex field based solely on the arms race between people seeking secure ways to encode and encrypt data at rest and in transit and those seeking to break that encryption. Encryption is extremely commonplace. Most websites you visit use SSL, the Secure Socket Layer, which uses encryption to secure data traveling between your device and the servers hosting the website.
