Backport

About

Backport is an open-source API gateway designed to secure your API against attacks without requiring any code modifications. Simply direct client traffic to its proxy URL. It offers over seventeen WAF patterns covering threats like SQL injection, XSS, and path traversal. You can add custom regex rules free of charge. Features include rate limiting, caching, mocking, and response transformation, all with under five milliseconds of overhead. The free tier allows 100 requests per minute. The code is MIT licensed and open-source, and a managed cloud service is available. No SDK is needed and no backend changes are required. It provides security alone.
