What is OAuth with some example?
OAuth is one of an open standard authorization protocol or you can say framework which provides applications the ability to do secure designated access. And to understand this we will take a example of some websites and some famous social-media website FaceBook. And you can tell Facebook that ok for crackyourinterview.com to access your profile or post updates to our timeline having given crackyourinterview your Facebook password. And here minimizes risk in major way in this event crackyourinterview suffers a breach your Facebook password remains safe.
So OAuth doesn't share password data but instead uses authorization tokens to prove an identity between consumers and service providers. One more thing is that OAuth is an autentication protocol which allows us to approve one appliction interacting with another on our behalf without giving away our password. | |
