In today's fast-paced digital environment, securing APIs is no longer optional—it's essential. GraphQL Security: Advanced Guide | Create 45 Security Layers | Including Authorization offers a clear, practical, and deeply technical roadmap to fortify GraphQL APIs against modern threats.

This guide introduces a comprehensive 45-layer security framework, covering everything from network hardening and rate limiting to fine-grained authorization, encryption, and regulatory compliance. Each layer is tailored to GraphQL's unique architecture and challenges, ensuring developers, DevOps engineers, and security professionals can implement defenses that are both robust and scalable.

You will learn how to:

  • Prevent attacks with query depth limits, cost analysis, and batch protection
  • Secure endpoints with HTTPS/TLS, WAFs, and monitoring tools
  • Apply effective authentication using JWTs, OAuth 2.0, MFA, and API keys
  • Master RBAC, ABAC, and advanced authorization techniques with Open Policy Agent (OPA)
  • Protect sensitive data and meet standards like GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2
  • Test, audit, and monitor your GraphQL systems to stay ahead of emerging threats
  • With real-world examples, field-tested tools, and a case study based on a realistic breach scenario, this book delivers actionable strategies—not just theory.

    If you build or manage GraphQL APIs, this book is your essential guide to security excellence.
