So you're building an API? Have you thought about how you're going to secure it to keep the data of your users safe?
It doesn't matter if it is REST, SOAP, or something modern like GraphQL, security is often overlooked or an after-thought during development. Do you encrypt your data in the database and if so, which data should be encrypted? Do you limit who has access to the data through API endpoints and query-able fields and if so, are you using something like JSON Web Tokens (JWT), OAuth, or something else? There's a lot to consider for API security, far beyond the points listed here.
In this session, we'll explore five (5) key components that you can apply in your project to strengthen the security of your API. In the process we'll be using the Go programming language (Golang) and see live demos on how the various techniques can be applied. We'll even see how they were used in the secure file sharing service ybits.io.

Are you confused about how authentication and authorization relate to GraphQL APIs? You’re not alone! It’s no secret that learning auth is hard on its own, let alone on top of GraphQL. In this talk, Sam will show how to demystify auth while learning how to use JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) with GraphQL APIs! After discovering why controlling access to APIs is so challenging and ways that can be used to solve it, Sam will step through how to handle authorization in the GraphQL server. This talk will use JavaScript examples, but the principles will apply to other tech. By the end, you’ll feel a whole lot better about tackling auth in GraphQL!

In this talk we will discuss best practices in continuous integration and deployment techniques when committing code to GIT and deploying to AWS Lambda by using webhooks and AWS CodePipeline. Additionally, we will discuss how we can use this technique to adopt a developer hands off approach to code deployment, allowing the developers to write more code and features, and worry less about deploying.
