This page describes how to authenticate, set up, and securely implement the videco.io API solutions with your product.

Security Guidelines for API Key Management

Follow these best practices to secure your API keys and protect your Videco.io integration:

Avoid Embedding API Keys in Code:

Do not include API keys directly within your code. Embedded keys can be unintentionally exposed, especially if the code is shared publicly. Instead, use environment variables or external configuration files to store your API keys securely.
Keep API Keys Out of Source Trees:

Store API keys in files located outside your application's source tree. This practice helps prevent keys from being inadvertently committed to your source code management system, such as GitHub, especially if it is publicly accessible.
Code Review Before Public Release:

Before releasing your code publicly, thoroughly review it to ensure no API keys or other sensitive information are included. This step is crucial to maintain the security and integrity of your API keys.
Delete Unnecessary API Keys:

Regularly audit your API keys and delete any that are no longer needed. Reducing the number of active keys minimizes the risk of exposure and potential attacks.
Restrict API Key Usage to Specific Systems:

Limit each API key pair to a specific system within your platform backend. This restriction confines the scope of each key, so if a key is compromised, you can easily revoke or regenerate it without affecting other keys.
Implementing these practices will help ensure the security of your API keys and protect your integration with Videco.io.
