Hi all,

I have implemented ES Publisher REST API in order to access and perform
CRUD operations on ES -BackOffice.

Each endpoint is authenticated by a valid Session-ID, passed to the
endpoint in request header.

In-order to obtain a session-ID we have implemented a separate authenticate
REST endpoint. A user can send username and password in the POST request to
this endpoint and if credentials are valid a session-id will be returned.

Currently, no encryption or other (basic-aouth/aouth) authorization
mechanism is yet implemented.

What would be the lightweight and best way to secure this 'authentication'
endpoint? Is there a particular wso2 way of doing this?

Thanks!
- Ayesha
