CST 438 - Software Engineering - Week 6 - Security With OAuth2

Write a weekly entry describing important things you learned this week.

  • This week we went over creating a front end in order for users to login. In order to do so, they would need to authenticate themselves through Google's authentication services. 
  • When starting the application, you will be loaded to the page but if you are not logged in, you will be re routed to a page that has a link to a Google login page. 
  • Once this link is clicked and the user has been verified, then the user is able to see the home page.
  • Authentication and validation is important because you want to have valid users entering the website. 
  • Your website might contain lots of information so it is vital to only let certain people login and only see what you want them to see.
