This is an IBM Automation portal for Integration products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Current DataPower log documentation is not including good categorization, sequence nor details explaining which log categories and event codes are including potential security issues. Documentation mainly includes plain event code and name without the details.
We are looking for the possibilities to monitor API's against the modern security threats, issues and vulnerabilities which IBM DataPower and APIConnect engines can catch (eg from OWASP API TOP 10 security issue list or defined by API Security Encyclopedia.)
We are looking for the event category and events catching:
API1:2019 Broken Object Level Authorization
API2:2019 Broken User Authentication - authentication and authorization issues,
API4:2019 Lack of Resources & Rate Limiting - overconsumption of the API comparing with the throttling and quota parameters,
API9:2019 Improper Assets Management
API7:2019 Security Misconfiguration - eg once the certificates or any of the security configuration items are misconfigured.
API8:2019 Injection - when data power protection for injection are triggered or other issue in this area is occuring.
API10:2019 Insufficient Logging & Monitoring - occurs when above is not handled well as there is no good documentation explaining how to catch the issues.

IBM has provided a security white paper, Addressing API threats as defined by OWASP with IBM API Connect [Nov 2011]. (https://community.ibm.com/HigherLogic/System/DownloadDocumentFile.ashx?DocumentFileKey=df87c3e8-3517-750f-7e50-164548090d91&forceDialog=0) and support videos API Security Part 1 Intro and Best Practices and API Security Part 2 - Mitigating OSWAP Top 10 threats for APIs.
If additional documentation is required please provide additional details for us to consider.
