WSO2 enhances third-party API gateway functionality
- WSO2 delivers innovative OAuth 2.0 capabilities (described above) that enhance any API gateway’s authorization flexibility
- WSO2 acts as a centralized access policy service for all your API authorization needs
- WSO2’s full-featured IAM capabilities enable your API authorization policies to tap into features such as user management, authentication, detailed authorization policies, consent management, and more.
Get to production faster by using WSO2’s API gateway solutions
- 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
