Title: Aplicando seguridad a una API REST con JSON Web Tokens

Abstract: The purpose of this work is to be able to present some examples of security configuration using JWT in the REST API that are published on the Internet. For this, a proof of concept has been implemented in the initial phase of the creation of a REST API development in JavaScript and deployed in Node.js. In this first phase of the project, the JWT tokens are signed symmetrically (secret key), where security has been increased later by adding asymmetric keys to obtain more robust tokens. In a second implementation phase, we continue to improve the infrastructure adding Kong as an API Gateway that allows a new abstraction layer to the API created in the previous phase. In addition, Kong in its community version offers us a series of plugins that enrich the different procedures for the APIs. Finally, to facilitate the work of managing different API, the Konga tool (dashboard) has been installed, which is the perfect complement for graphical and comfortable management for Kong.
