Secure "Get" method of all Admin APIs by authentication mechanism which are currently exposed as anonymous

Customers penetration on Developer Portal failed with high severity defects as below OOTB Admin APIs are not protected by authentication mechanism. These are returning results bypassing authentication mechanism. 

https://<server>:<port>/portal/rest/v1/types/_ids
https://<server>:<port>/portal/rest/v1/types/GlobalVariables/in
https://<server>:<port>/portal/rest/v1/types/UserCommunityXR
https://<server>:<port>/portal/rest/v1/types/CustomEmailTemp
https://<server>:<port>/portal/rest/v1/types/AsyncAPI/instance
https://<server>:<port>/portal/advanced-search/

GlobalVariables, UserCommunityXR, CustomEmailTemp, AsyncAPI are custom assets. At present custom assets also can't be associated with any community so that it can be protected via community directly from the API.

So, customer wants to have "GET" method of these APIs to be protected by authentication mechanism as Developer Portal is external facing and will be exposed to Internet.

SI Reference - SI-575247 Developer Portal APIs are bypassing authentication mechanism - Customer's security testing failed. This is blocking customer from going live.
