“BOLA” (Broken Object Level Authorization) and “IDOR” (Insecure Direct Object References) are both security vulnerabilities that relate to improper handling of user permissions in web applications, but they are recognized in slightly different contexts.

In the realm of API design, the principle of "Conventions over Configuration" paves the way for a powerful concept: Opinionated Defaults. As Shoutrange, we are proud to share that we are one of few, if not the first, that came up with and defined the idea in the context of API Design.

Achieving a stateless architecture in API design is a key principle of RESTful API development. It ensures scalability, reliability, and simplicity in the way that clients interact with your services. Here's a practical guide with practical tips to help you design stateless APIs.

In the world of software development, particularly in the realm of web services, the concept of being "stateless" in API design holds paramount importance. Statelessness is not merely a technical term; it's a guiding principle that can significantly impact the scalability, performance, and reliability of your applications.

BOLA (Broken Object Level Authorization) is a vulnerability in software applications where inadequate authorization checks allow attackers to access or modify objects within the system that they should not have permission to access.

In today's interconnected digital landscape, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) serve as the backbone of countless applications and services, facilitating seamless communication and data exchange between diverse systems. However, as the reliance on APIs continues to grow, so does the imperative for robust API security measures.
