  • WSO2 acts as a centralized access policy service for all your API authorization needs

  • Reduce custom development for high-value functions
  • Automatic JWT token revocation, eliminating the need for short token expiry or additional revocation requests made to the access token service
  • Automatic propagation of security events occurring at the API access level, such as a user password change or account disabling, which affect authorization logic
  • Specialized access tokens, such as single use
