Unlocking Zero Trust: The Role of OAuth in Security Architecture
Advanced Configuration Lab
Solution overview
In today's cloud-centric, BYOD-driven and distributed microservices landscape, traditional security measures such as VPNs and perimeter defenses must catch up with the increasing need for enterprise security. Implicitly trusting entities within a network poses significant risks, necessitating a paradigm shift. Enter Zero Trust—an approach that requires independent protection for every enterprise asset and authenticates and authorizes user and process identities at every level.
OAuth plays a critical role in implementing the Zero Trust architecture. This lab highlights how BIG-IP APM as Identity Aware Proxy helps you Secure Authentication and Authorization. Understand how OAuth, as an open standard for authorization, plays a crucial role in Zero Trust by providing secure authentication and fine-grained authorization capabilities.
