Beyond Tellerrand Düsseldorf

Aaron Parecki will be giving a talk at Beyond Tellerrand:

Why Do We Really Need OAuth Anyway?

Even if you've never heard about OAuth, you've certainly used it in your daily life already. But what purpose does OAuth actually solve? In this session, you'll learn about the original problems OAuth set out to solve, and how it evolved over the years into the foundation of nearly every modern system on the web.

This session explains OAuth through the lens of everyday life, without jargon or code. You'll learn how OAuth makes life easier for app developers, and how it enables the best blend of security and usability.
