Most recents (4)

Let’s get our series started in which we make our case against token-based AuthZ.

JWTs are like a key and composed of three parts: a header, a payload, and a signature. Image
The payload contains information to identify the owner of the token: user ID, email address, etc.

These are called claims and essentially, they can hold whatever info you may need.
The signature is what makes a JWT secure, but JWTs are usually not encrypted.

The information is encoded (not encrypted), which means it can be decoded.

The way to keep JWTs secure is to make sure they are hashed using a secret.

#Authorization and #Authentication are too critical to have everyone learning and implementing them from scratch. With more tens of thousands of employees, @Mercadolibre needed to create a solution that is easy to use and can be implemented in any language and tech stack
They also needed to solve for an important problem that touches on #AuthN and #AuthN: how to handle delegation of permissions, where a user can act on behalf of another user.

@patoarchitekci @marekgrabarz @rwitkowski_asc @marekgrabarz temat zna tak i to z praktyki, że aż mi trochę głupio że co nie powiem wyjdzie na hejt :), ale mam nadzieje że raczej będzie konstruktywnie i rzeczowo.

@patoarchitekci @marekgrabarz @rwitkowski_asc Główna rzecz (to samo było na #AzuredayPL - to do czego mam zastrzeżenie to przekazywanie że #OpenIDCOnnect to jest część #Oauth - tak nie jest. Ogólnie temat odcinka nie powinien brzemieć #OAUth i nie o to powinny być pytania.
