Introduction to OAuth2, OpenID Connect and JSON Web Tokens (JWT)
OAuth2, OpenID Connect and JWT are the new security stack for modern applications.
What you'll learn
In a world of light-weight and cross-platform apps, devices and services we need technologies that work well on arbitrary devices and that allow us implementing our security requirements in an interoperable and manageable way. OAuth2, OpenID Connect and JWT are the replacements for the "old-school" protocols we used to build distributed security architectures with like Kerberos, WS-Trust, WS-Federation and SAML.
