  • Some insight into web services, APIs, and application security for PSA Insurance Solutions

    10 Mar 2020

    I recently had the opportunity to work with PSA Insurance Solutions to create some web security-related content for their site. It was a real pleasure working with my friends there, Joshua and Mark, and also getting to know how their insurance-as-a-service business model works…It’s a really neat solution for those doing e-commerce.

    There’s often confusion around web services and APIs as well as web application security, in general. Check out the articles that I wrote where I clear the air and distill these topics down into just what you need to know:

    The difference between a web service and an API

    Why security is so important for web APIs

    Ensuring the right people are on board with web application security

    Common website vulnerabilities you must defend against

    Who should be responsible for web security?

Client Testimonials

“A business associate referred our company to Principle Logic when we were seeking a resource to perform vulnerability /penetration testing for our external and internal networks. We found Kevin Beaver to be professional, well informed, and easy to work with. His testing did not disrupt our networks, and his progress updates were timely.

His final report was very thorough and included security recommendations for our network environment. The executive leadership was so impressed with Kevin’s security expertise, they have extended their agreement to continue to perform periodic testing. We highly recommend Kevin Beaver and Principle Logic as a resource for network security testing.”
