Spring Boot/Java API: Security and Identity Management

What is Spring Boot?

Spring Boot is a web framework to create stand-alone Spring applications quickly. Developers can build many types of applications with Spring Boot, including web APIs. Spring Boot can leverage Spring Security to help developers build applications that are secure by design. Spring Security is a powerful and highly customizable authentication and access-control framework. You can integrate the Auth0 Identity Platform with Spring Security features to deliver a balance between security, privacy, and convenience to your users.

Auth0 handles over 4.5 billion monthly average transactions. That's only possible because Auth0 is committed to solving complex identity problems by empowering developers with tools that meet their unique security needs and requirements. Please let us show you how Auth0 makes identity and security work for you by exploring the Spring Boot code samples below.
