Authentication and Authorization Protocols - TSV
Authentication and authorization protocols are standards for securely verifying user identities and managing access rights between systems. OAuth 2.0 enables delegated limited access for third-party applications, OpenID Connect functions as an authentication layer built on OAuth 2.0, and SAML is an XML-based standard for enterprise single sign-on. These protocols form the foundation for secure identity federation in modern web applications and enterprise systems.
