How Can I Protect My APIs?

Identity authentication
Configure IAM or App authentication for APIs to prevent malicious calling.
Access control policies
Configure a whitelist or blacklist of IP addresses/IP address ranges or accounts for APIs to secure access.
Request throttling policies
By default, an API can be called up to 200 times per second. If your backend service does not support this access rate, decrease the quota accordingly.
