TOP REVIEWS FROM API SECURITY ON GOOGLE CLOUD'S APIGEE API PLATFORM
by HTMay 25, 2020
I worked for Apigee Edge as a software engineer (contractor) over 1 year and the material in these 3 courses help to connect the dots between components of the Apigee API Platform.
by JGMay 2, 2019
Course was brief but gives you lots of references to continue learning about OAuth2 which is a kinda hard topic to master, but the course does set you up to real world work,
by GMOct 12, 2019
This course was not so interesting as the previous two modules. Too much of handwritten code all the way using configurations prone to human errors and very cumbersome.
by SDSep 1, 2019
The perfect end of the Developing APIs specialization track covering all the essential and important concepts of API secuirty like OAuth, TLS and SAML.
