We’ve recently started doing a lunch and learn session at work. It’s a great opportunity to learn from others and for yourself to dive deep on a particular topic. For my presentation I looked at securing a .Net Core API using JWT.
This was a big learning exercise for me. It involved a lot of things from, what is a JWT, what is the process for using JWT, how to implement in dotnet core and a whole heap of other things (including the refresh token process).
By the end of my learning process I was able to setup an api that successfully authenticates users and then determines if users are authorised to access certain resources. This presentation is what I presented to my coworkers to explain and demonstrate my learnings!
Enjoy!
