 [KTS915](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kts915/) 5 Nofeembar, 2017

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!
