How do you secure AI APIs and machine learning endpoints in ASP.NET Core?

It is very Important to connect AI APIs and Machine Learning (ML) endpoints with ASP.NET Core to protect the system because it handles endpoint sensitive data, predictions and AI services.  If the system don't have proper security then attackers may get unauthorized access, data theft can take place and attacker can also misuse the APIs.

In ASP.NET to secure the system we use:

Authentication & Authorization :
It makes ensure that only Authorized person can get the access of the system, these are commonly used in  

• JWT Authentication
• OAuth
• Identity Services

 Example: 

builder.Services.AddAuthentication("Bearer")
   .AddJwtBearer();

Use HTTPS :

Always use HTTPS to keep the data secure and Encrypted.

app.UseHttpsRedirection();

API key Security : 

If AI services use external APIs like OpenAI APIs then it is Important to Secure the API Keys.

Exapmle:

var apiKey = builder.Configuration["OpenAI:ApiKey"];
