Secure API Design with OAuth 2.0 Virtual Internship

In this virtual internship, students will learn how to design and implement robust authentication and authorization mechanisms for RESTful APIs using OAuth 2.0 and JSON Web Tokens (JWT). They will gain hands-on experience in building secure APIs that can handle user authentication, access control, and token management. By the end of the internship, students will be able to develop and deploy production-ready APIs with industry-standard security practices.
