PHP Oxford meetup - Protect your API with OAuth2 (Rob Allen)

Schedule

Protect your API with OAuth2

Presented by Rob Allen (https://twitter.com/akrabat)

OAuth 2 is the gold standard for authentication in APIs and in this talk we’ll take a deep dive into how it works and how to implement an OAuth 2 server in your API. There are a number of work flows in OAuth 2 for different scenarios including mobile apps and websites connecting via JavaScript, so I will discuss each one and show you how to implement it.
