API security in mobile applications goes far beyond hiding API keys. Attackers can decompile apps, intercept network requests, and exploit vulnerabilities if security measures aren’t robust. This session explores advanced techniques for securing API integrations in mobile apps, including dynamic API key management, OAuth 2.0 best practices, mutual TLS authentication, certificate pinning, AES encryption for sensitive data, and runtime application self-protection (RASP). We’ll also discuss strategies to mitigate threats such as API abuse, unauthorized access, and reverse engineering.

Attendees will walk away with practical strategies to implement resilient, secure, and attack-resistant API architectures for mobile applications.
