Description With the rapid increase of APIs exposed by companies, API Management products are playing a more and more important role in their protection. The security functionalities implemented by an API Gateway range from simple JWT routing or validation to call orchestration and complex transformations of security tokens. In this scenario, which is so complex and variable, KrakenD proposes a security framework designed to be easily extensible, performant, and cloud-ready. The goal of the thesis is to build a proof of concept based on KrakenD, aiming at:
- verify its potentiality and its limitations in application modernization processes
- extend the framework with additional security features, like payload encryption, HMAC signatures, Basic Authentication.
