As a developer on the Veracity platform you can use Veracity Identity as the identity provider for the services, apps and APIs you create. There are several advantages to using Veracity Identity when working on the platform making it highly recommended for developers to make use of it.
Built upon modern technology
Veracity Identity has been created during the last few years and thus it is based on state of the art technologies. The service is built upon Microsoft Azure B2C and uses common industry standards such as OpenID Connect and Authorization code flow to authenticate users.
Multi-factor authentication
Using MFA allows you to not only authorize users by username and password, but also confirm that they are who they claim to be by for example asking for a code sendt to their mobile phone. The result is a significant increase of the security of your applications which gives you full control of who is using it. Enabling MFA is completely up to you can it can easily be toggeled in the developer portal.
Federation services
As a perk of using Veracity Identity the Veracity team will help you with federation if you have a preexisting userbase. This way you can have an easy tranisiton if you were using a different authenitaction system earlier and want to change to Veracity Identity. All you need to do is to contact the Veracity team and they will guide you through a few steps that need to be done on your end, and they will fix the rest.
Tailor-made for your Veracity services
Veracity Identity is made by the Veracity team specifically to work with your serives on the developer portal. Thus it facilitates for integration of other Veracity resources such as Data Fabric in combination with Identity. The team will also provide assistance and guides to help you get started.
