Intro to OAuth2 with Spring Security

Security of a software system is a paramount quality that developers need to take into consideration from the early stages of the development process.

In this presentation, we’ll focus on a specific way of implementing authentication and authorization: the OAuth 2 framework. We’ll discuss grant types, the main actors in OAuth 2 as well as possible mistakes you should avoid.

Moreover, we'll demonstrate an implementation over the OAuth 2 framework in a Java app, using one of the most used projects in the Spring ecosystem: Spring Security.

Key Points:
- What OAuth 2 is
- Ways of getting your access token (grant types)
- Tokens
- Ways of validating the token
- Demo
- Kahoot
