Resource security integration platform

Abstract:

A resource security integration platform may be configured to establish API integration between software applications and various APIs. The security platform may be configured to register for authorization with multiple APIs in order to communicate with those API such that so that the source applications do not need to authenticate or communicate with the API themselves. A source request is received from a source system including an indication of a resource and an address of an application programming interface of a destination system. A definition of the application programming interface is determined based on the address. Authorization for accessing the destination system is obtained using the definition. Then an interface request message is generated and sent it to the destination system using the authorization. The interface response message is received from the destination system and response data based on the interface response message is sent to the source system.
