Securing API data models

Security and Usability, two methodologies that have fought each other since the there was a login. As we have have progressed from a simple thought that even though something is painful developers will use it if it's secure, to an enlightened stage of good security and usability balance and judgement, we have seen the death of many specs and standards. Two open standards are leading the charge for this new auth age: OAuth 2 and OpenID Connect. In this talk we will explore the principles and standards behind API auth security, which will include: Using OAuth 2 and OpenID Connect as the entry point for secure API data auth - How those implementations have cannibalized previous standards to create something both secure and usable - How to practically use these standards.
