Portal authentication using OIDC

OIDC (OpenID Connect) is an identity authentication protocol built on top of the OAuth 2.0 framework.

OIDC is a modern and lightweight identity framework that is built for APIs and mobile device apps. Contrast this with Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), an earlier XML-based enterprise standard typically used to secure legacy corporate infrastructure.

OIDC lets applications verify a user’s identity through a trusted third party, such as Google or Microsoft.
