Auth0 Identity Platform

Federates login with Google, Apple, Facebook, Microsoft, and other external identity providers via OIDC, returning normalized user attributes.

Applies bot detection, velocity checks, and device fingerprinting at the authentication layer to block credential stuffing, account takeover, and fake account creation.

Captures and stores user consent for data processing at the identity layer, integrated with the registration and preference management flows.

Requests additional user attributes across multiple sessions rather than collecting a full profile at registration, reducing abandonment at the point of sign-up.

Supports passkey registration and authentication via the WebAuthn API, enabling biometric-authenticated, phishing-resistant login for consumer-facing applications.

Handles authentication and session management for millions of concurrent external users at low latency, sustaining consumer traffic spikes such as product launches and seasonal peaks.

Supports FIDO2 hardware keys, platform biometrics (Touch ID, Windows Hello), and passkeys for phishing-resistant authentication without password entry.

Evaluates contextual risk signals (device fingerprint, geolocation, IP reputation, behavioral anomaly) at each authentication and step-up challenge request, applying stronger authentication when risk is elevated.

Enforces externalized, fine-grained authorization policy using ABAC or RBAC for applications and APIs.

Provides access management functions for machines, workloads, services and agentic AI.

Provides phishing-resistant MFA such as FIDO2 and X.509, with protections against compromised passwords and common MFA attacks.

Provides a directory or integrated identity repository with synchronization across all user constituencies.

Defines and enforces authorization policies that decide which users and machines can access which applications and APIs, evaluated at runtime alongside authentication.

Manages OAuth 2.0 client credentials and JWT issuance for machine-to-machine API authentication, with rate limiting and scope enforcement.

Supports continuous passive authentication and shared signals such as CAEP and RISC for continuous adaptive trust.

Supports basic create, read, update and delete identity life-cycle operations across all user types.

Provides low-code or no-code journey-time orchestration to customize and extend access flows.

Implements SAML 2.0, OIDC, and OAuth 2.0 for SSO across SaaS and on-premises applications, with a pre-built application catalog and custom app support.
