In this session, we will examine the OAuth protocol for authentication: the reason for it, the versions of it, how it works and why this is fast becoming the best way to create a single sign-on mechanism within your application and/or website.
You will learn:
- What is OAuth?
- Why is everybody so excited about it?
- Why should (or shouldn’t) I care about it?
- How does it work, at the low level?
