Produktbeschreibung

"OAuth2 Authentication and Authorization in Practice"
In "OAuth2 Authentication and Authorization in Practice," readers are guided through a comprehensive and practical journey into the design, implementation, and security of OAuth2 in modern digital landscapes. The book opens with an accessible yet thorough exploration of OAuth2 fundamentals, detailing critical components, protocol flows, evolving standards, and the protocol's relationship with complementary technologies such as OpenID Connect. Through comparative analysis with legacy authentication mechanisms and a clear-eyed view of the protocol's threat landscape, the introductory chapters set a solid conceptual foundation for readers of all experience levels.
Delving deeper, subsequent chapters provide nuanced coverage of OAuth2 grant types, token management, and the complexities of securing distributed architectures. From best-practice implementations of authorization code grants and Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE) to safeguarding tokens in API-driven, microservices, and IoT contexts, the book navigates technical pitfalls and mitigations with clarity. It addresses advanced topics such as threat modeling, defense-in-depth strategies, and the unique security requirements of modern architectures-including single-page applications, serverless platforms, and cloud-native deployments-ensuring practitioners are well-equipped to design resilient systems.
Rounding off its practical approach, the book covers operational excellence: automated testing, monitoring, incident response, and credential management, as well as emerging trends like OAuth2.1, DPoP, GNAP, and privacy-enhancing standards. Guidance on cloud and hybrid deployments, federated identity, regulatory compliance, and zero trust architectures further positions this volume as an indispensable reference for engineers, architects, and security specialists intent on mastering OAuth2 for both present and future challenges.
