Talk Abstract

JWTs Aren't So great

JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) are all the rage in the security world. They’re becoming more and more ubiquitous in web authentication libraries, and are commonly used to store a user’s identity information.

In this talk, Randall Degges, Developer Advocate at Okta, will walk you through web authentication from the ground up, explaining how it works both with and without JWTs. Along the way you’ll learn why JWTs aren’t as great as you might hear, and learn about better ways to speed up web authentication for your websites.

Through this talk, you’ll learn:

  • How web authentication works.
  • How HTTP sessions and cookies store information.
