This plugin enables three different settings for each REST API endpoint: No authentication required, Authentication required, or Not available at all. It also makes it possible to force https and to disable JSONP. So, together with proper authentication methods and appropriate permissions, this plugin ensures that the REST API can be used without compromising security. Thank you!

The last update comes perfectly in time with the release 4.7. This plugin is perfect if you don’t use the REST API yet or if you don’t want your data to be accessed without your consent.
