Emmy Codes 🪖🚀👨‍💻

Good morning friends, mutuals, devs 👋 Woke up verified 😌 Decided to go for the verification badge in order to boost my reach, visibility, and get myself authenticated. Let me reintroduce myself: I am Emmy, a software engineer and CS graduate who is keen on developing smart, scalable products, software, SaaS, systems, and solutions 😃 I build on Node.js, NestJS, Python, and am presently upskilling in AI engineering to train smart models, integrate agents into my software, and increase my value in this saturated space. I interned in backend engineering last year @genesystechhub @Tenece_ which taught me the technical know-how and how to work with peers in a professional space. Presently, I have worked and collaborated with a few startups like @lets_dap and am working on my own startup, GreenVerify. I look forward to improving the space by dropping educational content, coding tips, and creating value. I am open for collaborations, work opportunities, feedback, and connecting with fellow devs and like-minded people - let’s network, share ideas, pair on projects, or just vibe about code, AI, startups, and growth. If you’re building with Node.js/NestJS, exploring AI agents, grinding on side projects, or just love tech convos, hit me up! 🚀 Check out my portfolio: emmanuelngene.pxxl.click Please like, follow, and repost to increase my reach and I will be working on a list of projects this year ✌️ Stay blessed 🙏

@Akintola_steve Wow he should work on it, it’s very bad and discouraging.

@_devEmmy Looks like there’s a tweak in this whole algorithm thing. Elon rolled out a poll asking how the algorithm has been so far, and lots of comments confirm it’s been terrible.

I’m just really curious, why do X article posts get less visibility than tweets? Does that mean most people don’t actually read?

@stanlee0nX Ok I will check it out

@_devEmmy For real bro

I’m giving you guys a platform to be heard🙂‍↔️ de-boothe.vercel.app

@MS_On_This Sad Which site link is this bro

No wonder 😭 Don say anything, just quote with anything abeg 🤲🥹

@Taofeeq653551 @stanlee0nX Amen bro

Happy Eid to all my Muslim and Christian brothers and sisters 🤍✨ May this season bring us joy, peace, and happiness. I pray we all enjoy the fruits of our labour and see our efforts pay off. Wishing everyone love, growth, and endless reasons to smile. 🌙

I created one two weeks ago and it got very low engagement. Threads are definitely a better way to pass information. I think the reason is simple: most Nigerians aren’t big readers especially when it comes to long journals, research papers, documentation, etc. And since most of your followers are Nigerians, that plays a big role. But when Western guys post long articles, they go viral because their audience is full of people who actually enjoy reading in-depth stuff. Just my take.

@Taofeeq653551 Real man Second badge coming in 😅

@_devEmmy Secured

Happy Eid al-Fitr to all Muslim Faithful. May Allah use this glorious day to grant you your heart's desire. Enjoy your day 😅.

Day 50 yep, you saw it 50🔥 Today, I worked on three codebase, multiple languages c, c++, rust, ts, java (compiling to apk is a bit hard), go nextjs, Tanstack query used Box today in rust, it's built-in and stores value on the heap , added a --no-compress flag to Portal

@frontend__fairy Most times it depends on your mutuals

When you posted a banger worthy tweet that didn’t bang then someone posted the same thing and it bang

@steve_koncept My guy

@Pascal_FTM Welcome bro

@_devEmmy So much knowledge here bro. Thank you

API Security Best Practices API security refers to the practices and mechanisms used to protect APIs from unauthorized access, abuse, and data breaches. It ensures only trusted users and systems can interact with backend services. Secure APIs protect sensitive data and maintain system integrity. Why API Security Is Important - APIs expose backend services to external applications - Poorly secured APIs can lead to data leaks and system compromise - Many modern applications rely heavily on APIs for communication - Protects user data, financial transactions, and business logic Authentication and Authorization - Always require authentication before granting API access - Use strong authorization mechanisms to control user permissions - Implement token-based authentication such as JWT - Ensure role-based or permission-based access control Use HTTPS for Encryption - Encrypt all API communications using HTTPS - Prevents attackers from intercepting sensitive data - Protects login credentials, tokens, and user information - Avoid transmitting sensitive data over unencrypted connections Input Validation - Validate all incoming data before processing it - Prevent malicious inputs such as SQL injection or script injection - Enforce strict data types and formats - Reject unexpected or malformed requests Rate Limiting and Throttling - Limit the number of requests a client can send - Prevent brute-force attacks and API abuse - Protect backend resources from overload - Example: limit requests per minute per user or IP API Keys and Tokens - Use API keys to identify applications accessing your API - Rotate API keys periodically - Store keys securely and avoid exposing them publicly - Combine API keys with stronger authentication methods Secure Error Handling - Avoid exposing internal system details in error messages - Do not reveal database queries or stack traces - Return generic error messages to clients - Log detailed errors internally for debugging Implement Access Control - Restrict access to sensitive endpoints - Apply least-privilege access principles - Ensure users only access resources they own or are permitted to use Monitoring and Logging - Log API activity for auditing and investigation - Monitor unusual traffic patterns - Detect suspicious behavior early - Use monitoring tools to track request metrics and failures API Versioning - Maintain different versions of APIs when changes are made - Prevent breaking existing client applications - Secure deprecated versions before removing them Protection Against Common Attacks SQL Injection - Sanitize inputs and use parameterized queries Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) - Validate and encode user-generated content Denial of Service (DoS) - Implement rate limiting and traffic filtering Best Practices Summary - Always authenticate and authorize API requests - Encrypt communication using HTTPS - Validate and sanitize all inputs - Implement rate limiting and monitoring - Protect API keys and tokens securely - Log and analyze API usage patterns Stay safe out there — secure APIs = secure apps!

@Akintola_steve Thanks man Thanks for reposting also

@_devEmmy Great one Emmy
