Architectural Overview
AWS AppSync and API Gateway serve as the fortified front door for microservice applications. By combining GraphQL schema validation with AWS WAF rate-limiting, SQLi/XSS filtering, and OpenID Connect (OIDC) / AWS Cognito JWT authorization, we eliminate unauthorized API traversal.
How CMKRL LLC Delivers Exceptional Capability
Drawing on 22 years of naval tactical systems experience and graduate-level cybersecurity engineering, CMKRL LLC designs high-assurance API boundary layers:
- Granular GraphQL Field-Level Authorization: Enforcing `@aws_auth` directives to restrict schema fields based on user roles.
- AWS WAF Bot Control & Rate Limiting: Shielding endpoints against Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) and credential stuffing attacks.
- Private API Endpoints: Restricting ingress exclusively to intra-VPC traffic via AWS PrivateLink and VPC Interface Endpoints.
