Security Integration Guide¶

Overview¶

This guide covers security best practices and integration requirements for TelcoAPI implementation.

Authentication¶

API Key Authentication¶

const apiKey = process.env.TELCO_API_KEY;
const client = new TelcoAPIClient({
  apiKey,
  environment: 'production'
});

OAuth 2.0¶

const client = new TelcoAPIClient({
  clientId: process.env.CLIENT_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.CLIENT_SECRET,
  authUrl: 'https://auth.telco-api.com/oauth2/token'
});

Security Best Practices¶

1. API Key Management
2. Store keys in secure environment variables
3. Rotate keys regularly

4. Use different keys for development and production

5. Network Security

6. Use TLS 1.3 for all connections
7. Implement IP whitelisting
8. Enable request signing

9. Use secure DNS resolution

10. Access Control

11. Implement role-based access control (RBAC)
12. Use principle of least privilege
13. Regular access audits

14. Implement session management

15. Data Protection

16. Encrypt sensitive data at rest
17. Use secure key management
18. Implement data masking
19. Regular security assessments

Compliance¶

• GDPR compliance
• PCI DSS requirements
• Telecom regulations
• Data residency requirements

Monitoring and Alerts¶

const monitor = new SecurityMonitor({
  alertThreshold: 'medium',
  notificationEndpoint: 'https://alerts.company.com/security',
  metrics: ['auth_failures', 'api_abuse', 'data_access']
});

Incident Response¶

1. Detection
2. Automated threat detection
3. Anomaly detection

4. Real-time monitoring

5. Response

6. Automated blocking
7. Incident logging
8. Alert notification

9. Response procedures

10. Recovery

11. Service restoration
12. Post-incident analysis
13. Security improvements
14. Documentation updates
