Abstract: Currently the use of REST APIs by virtually all modern services and systems is essential to provide advanced, personalized and modern functionalities to users, whether on their mobile devices or on any commerce, blog or entertainment website, among many others. Securing these APIs is essential to ensure that user data is not affected, the confidentiality of certain data that could be sensitive, as well as to comply with the European Union's data protection regulation. This paper analyzes the most prevalent threats and vulnerabilities in REST APIs and the security mechanisms to protect them. An API Gateway is a security solution that allows managing, configuring and routing incoming requests to the APIs exposed in the different backends of the corporate environment. That is why the work is completed with a practical part in which an example of deployment of an API Gateway solution based on the KONG product is shown, to protect a REST API with the mechanisms analyzed in the theoretical part.
