Identity Access Management

Set the groundwork for understanding information security and refresh your understanding of the technologies used in future lessons.

Explore frequently used methods of identifying who is making requests on web systems. Implement modern software patterns to accomplish this goal across the stack.

Understand and overcome common pitfalls of the ubiquitous password authentication design pattern.

Limit access to specific resources or actions by restricting requests only to authorized request to particular users and groups of users. Implement role-based access controls (RBAC) across the stack.

Stay one step ahead of attackers by implementing a secure development process and knowing how to keep informed on the cutting edge of security research.

In this project, you'll demonstrate your new authentication and authorization skills by creating a full-stack application for a coffee shop menu.
