We describe security vulnerabilities recently discovered in the NGINX LDAP reference implementation, and how to mitigate them. NGINX Open Source and NGINX Plus are not affected, and no corrective action is required if you do not use the reference implementation.
Authenticating API Clients with JWT and NGINX Plus
With NGINX Plus as an API gateway, you can use JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) to control access to your APIs. We explain how to configure the gateway for JWT-based authentication, issue JWTs to API clients, rate limit, log claims from the JWT, and revoke JWTs.
Implementing OpenID Connect Authentication for Kubernetes with Okta and NGINX Ingress Controller
The Ingress controller is an ideal location for centralized authentication and authorization in Kubernetes. We show how to implement single sign-on with NGINX Ingress Controller as the relaying party and Okta as the identity provider in the OIDC Authorization Code Flow.
Authentication and Content-Based Routing with JWTs and NGINX Plus
NGINX Plus uses the information in JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) to authenticate clients and route them based on the JWT content.
