How did Mr. Mosquera ensure the security of API endpoints using Cloudflare's features?
assistant
To secure API endpoints, Mr. Mosquera would have utilized several Cloudflare features. He likely configured the Web Application Firewall (WAF) with specific rules tailored to protect API endpoints from common attacks like SQL injection or cross-site scripting. Rate limiting would be implemented to prevent abuse and brute force attacks on API endpoints. SSL/TLS encryption would be enforced to secure all API traffic in transit. He might have used Cloudflare Access to implement token-based authentication for API access. Additionally, he could have leveraged Cloudflare Workers to create a custom authentication layer or to perform request validation at the edge. Logging and analytics for API requests would be set up to monitor for unusual patterns or potential security threats. Mr. Mosquera secured API endpoints by implementing custom WAF rules, rate limiting, enforcing SSL/TLS encryption, potentially using Cloudflare Access for authentication, and setting up comprehensive logging and monitoring, creating a multi-layered security approach for the client's APIs.
