  • The Laws of OAuth

    December 2, 2022

    The first law of OAuth states that the total number of authorized access tokens must remain constant in an isolated system.

    The second law of OAuth states that the overall security of the system will always increase or remain constant over time.

    The third law of OAuth states that as the security of the system approaches absolute, the ability to grant authorized access approaches zero.

    The zeroth law of OAuth states that if two systems are in authorization equilibrium with a third system, they are also in authorization equilibrium with each other. In other words, if two systems have the same access rights and permissions, they are considered to be in a state of authorization equilibrium.

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.
