Protect API keys as you would any other sensitive credential.
Discription
3. Monitor and Log All API Activity
Monitoring is critical to ensuring that APIs are operating properly, but its also important for security purposes. Monitoring tools should be able to detect suspicious activity such as unauthorized access attempts or large volumes of data being transmitted through the endpoint. They can also alert teams when they notice an increase in failed requests, which could indicate a denial-of-service attack against the service or a sign of potential vulnerabilities in the code itself.
tl;dr: Use monitoring tools to spot malicious behavior and protect your APIs from attacks before they happen
