OAuth 2.0 Overview – Security Boulevard

OAuth 2.0 Overview – Security Boulevard

OAuth 2.0 is a secure authorization protocol allowing applications to access specific user data without revealing user’s password. It can be compared to a valet key, providing specific access without full control. Instead of sharing usernames and passwords with a third-party application, OAuth 2.0 allows users to grant limited access to the application. Understanding OAuth 2.0 is essential for all developers working on modern web, mobile, or API-first applications.
