Abstract :
This paper focuses on the salient security
implications of the inherent statelessness that
characterises Representational state Transfer (REST)
APIs. The ever rising popularity of the REST
architecture has resulted in its widespread application in
the development and deployment of web services for
implementing efficient enterprise solutions. REST
techniques enable applications to share resources of a
variety of nature seamlessly over the web thus making it
possible to provide integration and interoperability. The
REST API technique does not require storage of
complex states in memory and is also characterised by
simple logical structures. It is this inherent simplicity
that leads to issues with security that will be covered in
this paper.
