04. SQRL from a provider point of view page
In this page we will talk about the concepts of SQRL form a service providers point of view.
This page would classify you as a service provider if you answer yes to any of the following:
- I have a website that allows/will allow users to login
- I have a web app that allows/will allow users to login
- I want to have some form of authentication on a set of data
- The software I'm creating has customers that want to securely login
If you answered yes to any of these then this page would say that you are the ideal candidate for using this middleware.
When you wish to allow users to login to your system securely and quickly without having to know passwords or manage passwords. *** YES, THAT RIGHT *** you did read that no more passwords and no more password leaks.
Nothing it FREE yeah FREE SQRL has been created by Steve Gibson of GRC.com as a free and open authentication protocol.
An identity is a unique value that identifies an individual to site and can be associated with a user. An individual can have more than one identity per site.
OK so really there is one password but it’s the user’s password for there SQRL client and as a service provider you will never see this. This is a great thing as you will only ever get data that if leaked is of no help to a user.
If you have more than one application server or you might do at some point by design, then see the scaling and multi-server setups page for more information
