How to Build a Fortress with the Security of a Tent

API Security

A talk given by Curity's CTO Jacob Ideskog at the Nordic APIs 2024 Platform Summit.

How Single Page Applications Came, Conquered and Ruined the Day. We build APIs, not apps. Why should we care about what the application teams are doing? Please don’t ask us to look at the bigger picture.

In this talk, Jacob Ideskog will present the bigger picture, whether you like it or not. Securing platforms is a massive task, where both the details and the big picture matter. We can rely on security standards such as OAuth and OpenID Connect, but if we don’t use the right tool for the right task, security is merely a hope. So it’s time to present the right tools, for the right task and hopefully change hope into action.
