Security is paramount when integrating with financial APIs. This guide covers all security aspects of Rise B2B API integration.

​
Security Architecture

Rise B2B API implements a multi-layered security approach to protect your data and transactions:

Authentication

  • JWT token-based authentication
  • SIWE blockchain signatures
  • Multi-factor authentication
  • Session management

Encryption

  • TLS 1.3 encryption
  • End-to-end encryption
  • Data at rest encryption
  • Secure key management

Authorization

  • Role-based access control
  • Permission-based operations
  • API key management
  • Audit logging

Monitoring

  • Real-time threat detection
  • Anomaly monitoring
  • Security event logging
  • Incident response

​
Security Best Practices

​
Authentication Security

Token Management

  • Use environment variables
  • Implement token rotation
  • Monitor token expiration
  • Secure token storage

Private Key Security

  • Use dedicated API wallets
  • Implement secure storage
  • Regular key rotation
  • Access control

​
Data Protection

Sensitive Data

  • Never log sensitive data
  • Use secure transmission
  • Implement data masking
  • Regular data audits

Access Control

  • Principle of least privilege
  • Regular access reviews
  • Multi-factor authentication
  • Session management

​

Stop affected operations Isolate compromised systems Preserve evidence
2

Assessment

Identify scope of compromise Assess potential impact Document incident details
3

Containment

Implement containment measures Update security controls Monitor for further activity
4

Recovery

Restore from secure backups Update compromised credentials Implement additional security
5

Post-Incident

Conduct post-incident review Update security procedures Implement lessons learned
