Very informative
A very informative book but unfortunately it sends me to sleep. I’m unsure if it’s my dyslexia or if I just don’t find the subject as interesting as I had hoped. However it is a very informative book which though I’m struggling to fully grasp I am glad I brought it.

I have read the book on 10 days and i feel i can hack APIs, whereas i had a backgroud about web hacking issues, the book is well organized and the reading was done seamlessly. There is a minor caveat, sometimes there is a lack of screenshot when operations in tools are describted, but It just occurs a couple of times or more.

"Hacking APIs" by Corey Ball, published in 2022 by No Starch Press, is a comprehensive guide to web API security testing. APIs, or Application Programming Interfaces, serve as intermediaries between software programs, enabling seamless communication. This book uniquely delves into API fundamentals and security practices, offering clear explanations and practical examples. It covers enumeration tools, vulnerability discovery, and emphasizes the importance of API security in the context of modern cyber trends like microservices. Despite the negative connotations associated with hacking, the book aims to educate cybersecurity enthusiasts on protecting systems rather than causing harm. For beginners, it provides a solid introduction to APIs and their vulnerabilities, while experienced professionals can benefit from its insights into advanced tools and techniques. In a rapidly evolving tech landscape dominated by mobile apps, understanding API security is paramount. "Hacking APIs" reframes the term "hacker" in its original context of creative problem-solving and system improvement, highlighting the crucial role of API security in safeguarding against cyber threats.

One of the best books I’ve read in a long time. Corey is an exceptional pen tester and mentor. He simplifies and deliver the content is an easy to digest way. The subject is very interesting. He covered a real need in that book. I practically like all No Starch Press publications. 🙂
