What it does

Authentication, authorization, and API security implementation. Use when building user systems, protecting APIs, or implementing access control. Covers OAuth 2.1/OIDC, JWT patterns, sessions, Passkeys/WebAuthn, RBAC/ABAC/ReBAC, policy engines (OPA, Casbin, SpiceDB), managed auth (Clerk, Auth0), self-hosted (Keycloak, Ory), and API security best practices.

Authentication & Security

Implement modern authentication, authorization, and API security across Python, Rust, Go, and TypeScript.

When to Use This Skill

  • Securing APIs (JWT validation, rate limiting)
  • Adding passwordless auth (Passkeys/WebAuthn)
  • Migrating from password-based to modern auth
  • Integrating enterprise SSO (SAML, OIDC)
  • Implementing fine-grained permissions (RBAC, ABAC, ReBAC)
