馋奶兔 提交于 2019-11-27 00:35:14
So I am using the Google Maps API on my first project that I am doing... So yes I am new and I am sorry if this is basic or obvious but I haven't been able to find a clear answer or direction. Below is the documentation I found from Google about securely using the API Key. Best practices for securely using API keys When you use API keys in your applications, take care to keep them secure. Publicly exposing your credentials can result in your account being compromised, which could lead to unexpected charges on your account. To keep your API keys secure, follow these best practices: Do not embed

Place API key in Headers or URL

问题 I'm designing a public API to my company's data. We want application developers to sign up for an API key so that we can monitor use and overuse. Since the API is REST, my initial thought is to put this key in a custom header. This is how I've seen Google, Amazon, and Yahoo do it. My boss, on the other hand, thinks the API is easier to use if the key becomes merely a part of the URL, etc. "http://api.domain.tld/longapikey1234/resource". I guess there is something to be said for that, but it

问题 Am working with phil sturgeon REST_Controller for codeigniter to create a REST api, so far i've been able to create a simple library for generating api keys for the users. My problem is now sending the api key to the API for each request, how i do this without having to manually send it for every request. 回答1: You should look into request signing. A great example is Amazon's S3 REST API. The overview is actually pretty straightforward. The user has two important pieces of information to use

问题 Does anyone know of any API key generator script/class for PHP? The class should have method generate, that would generate a key and isValid() method, to check if the key is valid. 回答1: There are multiple ways to generate API keys. I've used following 3 methods depending on the applications, Base62(random). Generate a large secure random number and Base-62 encode it. The key looks like "w5vt2bjzf8ryp63t". This is good for self-provisioned system. You don't have to worry about collision and

How to open-source an application that uses API keys [closed]

感情迁移 提交于 2019-11-26 20:34:37
问题 For a pet project, I develop a desktop application which requires API keys from several different webservices. I've been going through and preparing this application to become open-sourced and run across the problem of what to do with those keys. The problem is this: My understanding is that these API keys should not be visible to anyone using the application or viewing/modifying the source code. From the webservice's end, these API keys are used to identify applications accessing their API,

In iOS, how can I store a secret “key” that will allow me to communicate with my server?

泄露秘密 提交于 2019-11-26 20:24:34
I want to store a secret key ("abc123") that I will use in the header of my REST API requests. My server will check this secret key. If it matches "abc123", then allow the request to be made. I'm thinking about a simple solution like: let secret = "abc123" But are there going to be any downfalls to this? Rob Napier Crazy as it sounds, this is probably the best solution. Everything else is more complicated, but not much more secure. Any fancy obfuscation techniques you use are just going to be reverse engineered almost as quickly as they'll find this key. But this static key solution, while

Secure keys in iOS App scenario, is it safe?

问题 I am trying to hide 2 secrets that I am using in one of my apps. As I understand the keychain is a good place but I can not add them before I submit the app. I thought about this scenario - Pre seed the secrets in my app's CoreData Database by spreading them in other entities to obscure them. (I already have a seed DB in that app). As the app launches for the first time, generate and move the keys to the keychain. Delete the records from CoreData. Is that safe or can the hacker see this

We are using a Google MapView in our application but on different computers we must use different API keys, otherwise the MapView doesn't display anything. Is there a way to set one key for all developers? Is there a way to set one key for all developers? For the debug signing key, copy your debug keystore (e.g., ~/.android/debug.keystore ) between developer PCs, and remember to update all of them again when that keystore expires. For the production signing key, copy the production keystore between developer PCs. Note that I have not tried copying keystores between Windows and non-Windows (OS
