How to set in Angular cookies, type number values?
Why is Token Based Authentication more preferable Then Cookie
based?
The
cookie-based authentication has been the default and the cookie-based
authentication is stateful.
What is Stateful?
Keep and
track the previously stored information which is used for a current
transaction.
A
stateful service based on HTTP cookies uses the HTTP transport protocol and its
ability to convey cookies, used as session context.
What are the Cookies Limitations?
We can
only store around 20 cookies per web server and not more than 4KB of
information in each cookie and they can last indefinitely should you choose to
specify the max-age attribute.
Token
Based Authentication -
The Token-based
authentication has received expansion over last few years due to RESTful Web
APIs, SPA and so on.
The Token
based authentication is stateless.
What is Stateless?
Every
transaction is performed as if it was being done for the very first time and there
is no previously stored information used for the current transaction.
Token
Based Authentication steps -
A user
enters their login credentials and the server verifies the entered credentials.
Validating to the entered credentials, It’s correct or not. If the credentials
are correct, returns a signed token.
This
token is stored in local storage on the client side. We can also store in
session storage or cookie.
Advantages
of Token-Based Authentication -
1. Stateless,
2. Scalable
3. Decoupled
4. JWT is placed in the browsers
local storage
5. Protect Cross Domain and CORS
6. Store Data in the JWT
7. Protect XSS and XSRF Protection
Where to Store Tokens?
It does
depend on you, where you want to store the JWT. The JWT is placed in your
browsers local storage.
