OAuth and OpenID Connect in Practice
This masterclass will introduce you to the concepts and ideas behind OAuth 2.o and OpenID Connect (OIDC), and how they can help to secure your apps and websites. We will also discuss why things are designed the way they are, how they should be deployed in a scalable fashion, and what it means to build an entire API platform that uses these standards.
In the practical part of the masterclass we’ll try out the different flows and attendees will gain the information needed to implement their OAuth and OpenID Connect based solutions.
Throughout the masterclass, we encourage discussions and questions. For example: why should we, or should we not use the standards in certain ways. What can go wrong, and how does your organization gain the highest degree of reusability when deploying these mechanisms?
