Application Programming Interface (API) security is the practice of protecting APIs from attacks. Like databases, servers, and networks, APIs are susceptible to attacks from hackers looking to gain access to sensitive data. Since APIs are more commonly used — to the extent that they’ve become a fundamental part of modern applications — they’ve become a popular target for hackers.

Application Programming Interface (API) is a set of rules or protocols that allows one software application to interact with another. An API integration tool is a software that facilitates the ‘talk’ or communication and data sharing between different software systems and applications. While manual API integration is possible, utilizing API integration tools enhances the efficiency and reliability of this process.

One of the new features of Xcode 16 is called "explicitly built modules". Behind this abstract name is something that makes builds faster and compiler errors more informative.
