Demonstrating Proof-of-Possession (DPoP): Preventing Illegal Access of APIs

In a previous blog post, we discussed the prevalence of bearer tokens (or access tokens) to restrict access to protected resources, the challenges the sheer nature of bearer tokens present, and available mitigations. To recap, presenting a bearer token is proof enough of an authorization grant to avail the service and access resources protected by the token. This poses many security risks such as using stolen or leaked tokens to gain unauthorized access.

Creating a Secure SIMATIC PLC REST API Using DreamFactory

Organizations deploying Siemens SIMATIC PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) will logically want to track and manage PLC metrics. Exactly how these metrics are managed will depend upon the specific needs of the organization. For instance, organizations that would like to send PLC data directly to a Microsoft SQL Server database can use the TDS (Tabular Data Stream) protocol. But what if you wanted to subsequently access this data via a REST API?
