Certification of REST API based applications

Is there any certification process for applications that use Salesforce from outside through REST API (i.e. no Apex code)?

That is probably the closest thing you will get to restricting usage of the standard REST Api. You can't really certify which system is using the Api, unless you go custom and have someone build one in Apex.

Thank you Timothy. I meant to say if Salesforce company certifies 3rd party applications that use REST API to access Salesforce's customers.
