JWT issuance provides stateless authentication by generating signed tokens upon successful sign-in. Validate these JWTs on subsequent requests to authorize access without maintaining server-side session state.

RBAC assigns permissions based on user roles, while ABAC evaluates attributes for fine-grained access control. Implement both policy models to enforce granular authorization rules across your application endpoints and resources.

WebAuthn enables passkeys for phishing-resistant sign-in by leveraging public-key cryptography. Integrate passkeys into your authentication flow to reduce credential leaks and protect against session hijacking attacks.

Session management with secure cookies protects active sessions from hijacking. Implement token rotation and configure appropriate token lifetimes to ensure temporary access credentials expire safely without disrupting users.

MFA and TOTP add an additional security layer to the authentication process. Enable MFA to require secondary verification, reducing risk of unauthorized access even if primary credentials are compromised.
