Gateway Device for Authentication and Authorization of Applications and/or Servers for Data Transfer Between Applications and/or Servers

摘要

A method, apparatus, computer-readable medium, and/or system may be used to facilitate secured communications between internal and external applications and/or computing devices. For example, a gateway device may generate access tokens for internal applications, such as application programming interfaces (APIs), and/or external services. Access tokens may comprise various types of information used for authentication or authorization, such as client secrets, grant types, and/or client identifiers. Using one or more access tokens, internal applications may access data from external services. Similarly, external services may access data from internal applications using one or more access tokens.
