What protects the access to the Twitter API? [closed]

I get a consumer key and secret and a token with a token secret to send with my request to the API.

Why is this secure? Couldn’t someone intercept the keys and than use them themselves?

Answer

In https://api.twitter.com/ it is the https that protects the API keys with Transport Layer Security (TLS).
