A repo dedicated to exploring and adding different types of authentication with Spring boot!
Why do we need to secure an application
Imagine you have an application with customers and their transactions. We wouldn't allow anyone who is not authorised to access this information, which means we need to implement a security layer to protect the data.
Currently covered in this repo:
- Basic Authentication
To be covered in this repo:
- JWT Authentication
- OAuth2 Authentication
How to run this repo
- Basic Authentication:
Run the application 'BasicAuthentication', in the console you'll receive a generated password ('as this is just for example/practice purposes this is totally fine'). Use this to login on the login page at the endpoint 'http://localhost:8080/api/v1/paymentsPortal/users' the username will be the default 'user' name.
