23:37 leolove Hi, how would you avoid spamming on your public REST api endpoints which are not secured by tokens.
23:37 whartung you would monitor your traffic, and then ban IPs that consume to much of it.
23:39 leolove What if the API allows customer to register? by the time I restrict the IP, there will be thousands of accounts created :)
23:39 leolove should I write small back-ends with all my client apps to secure registration and validate requests?
23:40 whartung the thresholds for the ban can vary however you want. If you see the same IP register 10 accounts in less than 1 minute (or even a lower threshold), ban it. No reason to wait for "1000's"
23:42 leolove or what if I restrict that rest endpoint with tokens and with every web app I create, I write small server-side logic to use that token to register?
23:43 whartung where do you get the tokens?
23:43 whartung nothing to stop them from spamming that, and then pushing forward
23:44 whartung No, you simply need traffic monitoring to help protect against those kinds of things.
