Magento webservice

Magento provides webservice with the ability to manage your eCommerce stores by providing calls for working with resources such as customers, categories, products, and sales orders. It also allows you to manage shopping carts and inventory.

A SOAP v2 API version has been available since Magento 1.3, and a WS-I compliant version has been available since Magento 1.6.

The Magento API supports SOAP and XML-RPC, where SOAP is the default protocol.

With SOAP api,
To connect to Magento SOAP web services, load the WSDL into your SOAP client from either of these URLs:
http://hostname/api/soap/?wsdl
where hostname  is the domain for your Magento host

As of v1.3, you may also use the following URL to access the Magento API v2, which has been added to improve compatibility with Java and .NET:
http://magentohost/api/v2_soap?wsdl=1

The following PHP example shows how to make SOAP calls to the Magento API v1:

require_once('app/Mage.php');
Mage::app();

try {

 $client = new SoapClient('http://hostname/api/soap/?wsdl', array('cache_wsdl' => WSDL_CACHE_NONE)); 

 $token = $client->login('APIUSERNAME',"APIKEY");

        $result = $client->call($token, 'customer.info', 'CUSTOMERID');

        $result = $client->call($session, 'sales_order.info', 'orderIncrementId');



        $result = $client->call($session, 'order.list');

 var_dump($result);

}

catch (Exception $e) { //while an error has occured

 echo "==> Error: ".$e->getMessage()." - code: ".$e->getCode(); //we print this

}

Here, we need to login to soap client with api username and api key. 
The APIUSERNAME' and APIKEY can be managed from the magento backend. For that, go to magento admin panel and to System - Webservices menu as shown below:



And add new user with api username and password and assign roles to it.

Finally, for the soap api to work, we need to enable soap extension on our server.

Cyber Security

Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and programs from digital attacks. These cyberattacks are usually aimed at accessing, changing, or destroying sensitive information; extorting money from users; or interrupting normal business processes. Implementing effective cybersecurity measures is particularly challenging today because there are more devices than people, and attackers are becoming more innovative. What is cybersecurity all about? A successful cybersecurity approach has multiple layers of protection spread across the computers, networks, programs, or data that one intends to keep safe. In an organization, the people, processes, and technology must all complement one another to create an effective defense from cyber attacks. A unified threat management system can automate integrations across select Cisco Security products and accelerate key security operations functions: detection, investigation, and remediation.
