Scaleway Security Groups API is one of 74 APIs that [Scaleway](https://apis.io/providers/scaleway/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Security Groups. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and API documentation.

A security group is a set of firewall rules on a set of Instances. Security groups enable you to create rules that either drop or allow incoming traffic from certain ports of your Instances. Security groups are stateful by default which means return traffic is automatically allowed, regardless of any rules. As a contrary, you have to switch in a stateless mode to define explicitly allowed.
