As REST APIs become more and more common, securing them from unauthorized access and protecting them from hacking attacks is vital. In this course, Securing REST Services Using Spring Security 5, you’ll learn exactly that: how to make sure only authorized users can access your APIs and protecting them against common attacks. First, you’ll explore how to add authentication to your REST endpoints. Next, you’ll discover how to pass claims and scopes into your web-based application. Finally, you’ll learn how to secure both your HTTP endpoints and the service layer methods that implement their logic. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Spring Security needed to write secure HTTP-based APIs for your websites, mobile apps, and other programmatic clients
