[Recording 01] - Authentication and Authorization with Arnav Gupta

What was covered in this session? 👇

---- ------------------------------------

We will cover basic concepts on how authentication and authorisation works in web applications.

Things that will be covered

1. What is authentication?
2. API authentication - Cookies / Headers / Tokens
3. JWTs vs server-side authentication (stateless vs stateful)
4. What is authorisation?
5. OAuth 2.0 (Authentication via Authorisation)
6. SSO, Federated Logins

This will not involve writing code a lot, more about understanding APIs and concepts. There will be a follow up session (one in Go, one in Typescript) to implement these authentication paradigms in an existing web service some days later.
