ASP.NET Core allows developers to easily configure and manage security for their applications. ASP.NET Core contains features for:
- Authentication Manager
- Licensing
- Data protection
- Forced to use HTTPS
- Confidential information of the application
- Prevent tampering from other domains
- Managing CORS (inter-domain queries). These security features allow you to build powerful, secure ASP.NET applications.
Security features of ASP.NET Core ASP.NET Core provides many tools and libraries to secure your application, including built-in identity providers, but you can use the service. Third party authentication like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. With ASP.NET Core, you can easily manage application secret information, such as how to store and use internal information without exposing the source code.
Authentication and Authorization Authentication is the process by which a user provides identity information and is then compared with information stored in the operating system, database, application or resource. If they match, the user authentication is successful, and can perform the operations they are authorized, through the authentication process. Licensing refers to the process that determines what the user is allowed to do.
Another way to think about authentication is to consider it as a way to enter a space, such as a server, database, application, or resource, while authentication is the action that the person User can execute to objects within that space (msy master, database, or application).
Security loopholes in the ASP.NET Core and Entity Framework Core software contain features that help you protect your application and avoid security breaches. The list below links to detailed technical documentation and avoids most common security holes in web applications:
Cross-site code attacks Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) SQL injection attacks Open redirection attacks There are many dangers that you should be aware of. For more details, see the other articles in the Security and Identity section of the table of contents.
