Building an Identity Architecture

Learn to build a robust and scalable identity architecture with this comprehensive four-part course! This training provides best practices for creating a centralized and modular identity architecture grounded in open standards. You'll gain a deep understanding of Neo-security concepts and how to apply them to secure APIs, services, and applications on the web and mobile.

This course equips you with the knowledge to build a secure and scalable platform for managing identities, governing token issuance, and enabling federation. Master the essentials of modern identity management and protect legitimate access.

Here's a breakdown of what you'll learn:

• Part 1: Introduction to Neo-security

  • Discover the core principles of Neo-security.
  • Explore the three key components of a Neo-security compliant system:
    • Identity Management System: Learn how to effectively manage user identities.
    • API Management System: Understand how to secure your APIs.
    • Entitlement Management System: Implement robust access control.

• Part 2: API Integration Patterns & Security

  • Dive into effective API integration patterns for a secure architecture.
  • Explore advanced token flows:
    • Phantom token flow
    • Split token flow
    • Proof-of-Possession tokens

• Part 3: Advanced API Integration & Entitlement

  • Deepen your understanding of API integration patterns.
  • Learn to organize scopes and claims for granular access control.
  • Implement levels of enforcement for enhanced security.
  • Explore token sharing techniques for secure inter-API communication.
  • Master entitlement management for precise access control.

• Part 4: Identities, Access Management & Authentication

  • Gain insight into user identities and their management.
  • Understand the theory of the authentication process.
  • Clarify the relationship between authentication and authorization.
  • Get an overview of federation for seamless access across systems.

This course is invaluable for anyone seeking to build a secure and scalable identity platform. Develop expertise in identity and access management (IAM), API security, and token management to protect your digital assets.
