Abstract

What do you do when you want a fully transactional banking API but PSD 2 is years away and you doubt that banks will ever make a good faith effort to ship a usable API anyway? You attack the bank's own mobile app and reverse engineer its API, that's what. This talk will present a case study of reverse engineering APIs from several banks, and compare their design decisions to best practices.
