ASP.NET Web API – Token Based Authentication Tutorial

Post Content

​ When it comes to securing ASP.NET applications, authentication and authorization play key roles. Authentication verifies a user’s identity by checking their credentials, while authorization verifies a user’s roles. This video provides an overview of token-based authentication, contrasting it with cookie-based methods. Learn how tokens and refresh tokens function, why token-based systems offer enhanced security with shorter expiration times, and the process of generating new tokens. This course is perfect for understanding secure data access in web applications.
