API gateway security: enforcing authN/authZ and rate limits at the edge
A single unauthenticated API endpoint exposed 37 million T-Mobile accounts in 2023. Edge-enforced authZ and identity-aware rate limits are how you prevent the repeat.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

Bandit maps findings to CWE IDs like CWE-502 and CWE-78, but flake8 and pylint never look for a vulnerability at all — the three tools solve different problems.
Node.js worker_threads share memory across V8 isolates by design — CVE-2025-23083 (CVSS 7.7) shows even the permission model meant to contain them can be bypassed.
A single @RequestBody bound to a JPA entity can let attackers set fields like isAdmin — DTOs close that gap by design, not by discipline.
One `verify=False` in a requests call disables both certificate and hostname checks — the same escape hatch PEP 476 tried to close in 2014.
OSS-Fuzz has found over 13,000 vulnerabilities since 2016, yet most AppSec teams still treat fuzzing as a research curiosity rather than a pipeline stage.
Cache poisoning, tunneling, and NXDOMAIN floods all abuse the same trust: DNS was built to be fast and open, not authenticated.
A practical, no-hype comparison of penetration testing platforms and pentest-as-a-service vendors — what to evaluate, six real providers reviewed, and where supply chain risk fits in.
Memory-safety bugs account for roughly 70% of high-severity CVEs in large C/C++ codebases at Microsoft and Google. Here's why, and what actually stops them.
