Can Apigee detect and block other types of attacks besides DDoS?

 Yes! Apigee can detect and block several other types of attacks besides DDoS attacks:

• Brute force attacks - Apigee can detect repeated failed login attempts from an IP address and temporarily block that IP to mitigate a brute force login attack.

• SQL injection attacks - Apigee can validate API request parameters to check for SQL injection attempts. Any malicious requests can be blocked.

• Cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks - Apigee can sanitize API request and response parameters to prevent XSS attacks. It can block any requests containing malicious script code.

• API abuse - Apigee's rate limiting and quota policies can detect patterns of API usage that indicate a client is abusing an API. The abusive client's requests can then be blocked.

• Malformed requests - Apigee can validate the format and structure of incoming API requests. Any malformed requests that don't match the API specification can be flagged as potential attacks and blocked.

• Unauthorized access attempts - If a client attempts to access an API resource that they are not authorized for, Apigee can detect this and block the request to prevent unauthorized access.

• Schema poisoning attacks - Apigee can validate that incoming API requests have the expected data format and types. Requests with invalid schemas can be blocked to prevent schema poisoning.

Apigee achieves this detection and blocking of attacks through features like request inspection, validation, rate limits, quotas, authentication/authorization, blacklisting, and response actions that can drop malicious requests.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions about the security capabilities of Apigee's API management platform.
