Abstract
This session explores common web service, web API and web application security considerations
and how you can use CA API Management solutions to address them.
Ben Urbanski has almost 10 years of experience with API gateways beginning at IBM in 2007,
continuing at Layer 7 in 2011, and to this day at CA Technologies. During that time, he’s been a
presales engineer, a senior director of presales engineering, and now an advisor on CA’s API
Management Presales Center of Excellence team. He has helped many customers understand
how they can simplify and accelerate the creation, security, integration and management of
their web services, web APIs, web applications and mobile applications using API gateways, API
portals and related products. Earlier in his career, he spent time as a software engineer at
several companies, so he’s well grounded in software development practices and how they
relate to API management.

Security Gateway / Internal Security (additional detail)
 Common Criteria for Enterprise Service Management (Access Control and
Policy Management), STIG, and FIPS 140-2 compliant, hardened, tuned
and special purposed appliance
– Common Criteria (CC) is the most relevant security certification for solutions in
our space; CA is the only gateway vendor with a recent certification to more
relevant profiles
– FIPS 140-2 Level 1 crypto processing in all form factors by default. CA offers an
optional hardware acceleration card for crypto processing that includes an on
board HSM in its hardware appliance form factor for FIPS 140-2 Level 3.
– CA’s emphasis on performance allows our customers to take advantage of our
many security capabilities without experiencing significant negative
performance and scalability impacts.

 Leading edge support for industry and vendor security standards and
solutions
– The industry and vendors are frequently creating and evolving security standards and solutions. The
standards and solutions can be difficult to understand, implement and maintain. CA wraps its expert
knowledge of both in automatic and/or simple to configure policy language that keeps pace with
changes.
– CA is often used to negotiate differences in security standards and solutions between consumers and
providers of services. For example, consumers might want to send their credentials using WS-Security
UserName tokens, and providers might expect credentials via SAML tokens. With CA in between,
neither consumers nor providers need to change. Instead, CA can accept WS-Security Username tokens
(and many others) from the consumer, perform authentication and authorization (and more), and
include a SAML assertion in the request forwarded to the provider.
 Service Virtualization
– An ESB concept, but with security implications. By using CA to virtualize your services (including their
identity, protocol and interface), you effectively hide implementation details from attackers.

 Identification, Authentication & Authorization
– Many out-of-the-box methods of identification, authentication and authorization based on industry standards
and vendor proprietary mechanisms
– The ability to support identity federation based on different standards, and identity brokering between
standards and vendor proprietary mechanisms
– Some (but not all) supported standards include SSL with mutual authentication, FTP Credentials, HTTP Basic,
HTTP Digest, HTTP Cookies, NTLM, Kerberos, SAML, WS-SecureConversation, WS-Security, OAuth, OpenID
Connect, XACML, LDAP, WS-Trust, WS-Federation, X.509 Certificates
– Some (but not all) supported vendor proprietary mechanisms include Mobile SSO, CA Single Sign-On, Tivoli
Access Manager, Oracle Access Manager, Sun Java System Access Manager
– CA can easily and conditionally use one or more of the above methods in a single policy (including JDBC and
other protocols for custom identity provider implementations)
– CA provides an out-of-the-box and configurable WS-Trust based STS service
– CA can be an enterprise PEP, PDP, PIP and PRP for XACML
– CA can be a SAML identity provider
– CA can be a OAuth authorization server and an OpenID Connect server

 Confidentiality
– Easy to configure and accelerated secure transport (SSL/TLS) for point-to-point encryption and confidentiality
(both in front and behind our gateway, with and without client authentication)
– Easy to configure and accelerated end-to-end confidentiality with message or element level encryption and
decryption based on industry standards (e.g. XML Encryption, WS-Security, and JWE)
 Integrity
– Easy to configure and accelerated end-to-end integrity with message or element level digital signature and
verification based on industry standards (e.g. XML Signature and WS-Security)
– HMAC signature support for emerging non-XML standards like REST and OAuth

 Auditing & Logging
– Automatic and configurable auditing and logging of events by category and priority level both on and off
gateways
– Gateway Audit Event viewer that can see all audit events across a cluster of multiple gateways with or without
full request and response message recording
– Auditing and logging is very configurable and can be managed globally across a cluster and/or conditionally in
policy
– Audit and log events can be sent remotely via syslog and/or all other outbound protocols supported by CA
 Non-repudiation
– CA supports non-repudiation through a combination of auditing, logging and digital signatures

 Data Classification and Compliance
– Automatic XML well-formed-ness validation
– XML schema validation, Schematron, and JSON schema validation
– Many additional out-of-the-box assertions for classifying, validating, masking and filtering message content at
runtime
 Threat Protection
– Automatic threat protection for TCP/IP Based Attacks, Coercive Parsing and XML Bomb, External Entity Attack,
Schema Poisoning, WSDL Scanning and XML Routing Detours
– Configurable threat protection for single and multi-message denial of service attacks
– Injection attack protection (both SQL and code)
– Rate limiting and SLA enforcement with high performance and accuracy across a cluster of multiple gateways
– True replay attack protection across a cluster of multiple gateways
– Virus scanning via the ICAP protocol with specific support Symantec, McAfee and Sophos

CA Mobile API Gateway
 Apple Push Notification
 Android Push Notification
 Mobile SSO (API and SDK)
– Multi-user Support
– Social Login
– One Time Password
– Dynamic App Config & Credential Provisioning
– Geo-location Support
– Cross Device SSO (QRC, BLE, NFC)
 Enterprise Browser
 Samsung KNOX for APIs

Where do I start?
 Reduce attack surface (expose only what’s needed; require all traffic to go through
gateway)
 Use a secure transport (i.e. SSL/TLS)
 Control access (e.g. Mutual Auth SSL, HTTP Basic Auth, OAuth, MSSO, API Key?,
etc.)
 Enforce a strict interface (i.e. validate protocol, resource, method, parameters,
schema)
 Validate (and optionally encode) input (and optionally output) parameter values
 Rate limit (to not exceed capacity - anywhere)
 Monitor (log and audit)
