    In this talk, you’ll learn how to use OAuth 2.0 to secure access to your APIs. OAuth is an authorization protocol which enables applications to access data on behalf of users without needing to know their username and password. This enables many use cases such as easily enabling multi-factor authorization for your users, and better separation of concerns of all your backend services.

    We’ll look at how to use JWT access tokens, as well as the tradeoffs that come with them. We’ll look at how to design scopes that allow granular access to various parts of your backend services. We’ll also look at how to design a microservices architecture protected by OAuth at a gateway.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
