Don’t leave the door open. Modern systems are complex and require you to consider many aspects. Here are some aspects we consider critical:
- APIs are the dominant software development direction/trend. Traditional/legacy ways to grant access is not fit for purpose of protecting this new way of delivering products and services.
- Customers are demanding better digital experiences. To maintain a competitive edge and drive brand loyalty businesses need to provide great online experiences.
- Standards (such as OAuth and OpenID Connect) are important to ensure high-security levels. Also enables scalability and helps future-proof your infrastructure. For example in the financial sector, these standards play a key role in the drive toward open banking.
- A modern architecture is a zero trust architecture. In a zero trust architecture, the new perimeter hinges on identity.
