Authentication and authorization are critical components of web application security, ensuring that only legitimate users can access resources and perform actions. This course provides a thorough understanding of how to implement secure authentication and authorization mechanisms in modern web applications.

Students will explore various authentication strategies, including session-based, token-based (JWT), and third-party OAuth authentication. The course also covers role-based access control, secure password handling, and best practices for protecting web applications from unauthorized access. By the end of this course, learners will be able to secure both front-end and backend applications effectively.
