/ API and Workload Identity

Securing workload access

No more lambdas, middleware, and custom plugins spread out in your infrastructure and your application.

Benefits /API and Workload Identity

Secure your production environment

Practical M2M authentication

Spire and mTLS create too much latency and management overhead. SlashID adopts OAuth2 Client Credentials and request signatures for higher scalability.

Secure API keys

Upgrade API keys to OAuth2 Client Credentials for better security and to allow fine-grained authorization.

Identity-based Rate Limiting to stop bots

SlashID can rate limit based on token claims, increasing performance and security.

IdP-agnostic

Work with any Identity Provider, not just SlashID.

Multi-cloud and On-Premise, Any Topology

SlashID can be deployed as an external authorizer for Envoy-based proxies, a standalone service, or as a sidecar.

Key differentiators /API and Workload Identity

Unify your identity structure

Remove Authentication Middleware

By moving the authentication logic to Gate, you empower your developers to not worry about authentication.

Create a Unified Identity Structure

No matter how many IdPs or token types there are, with Gate, you can expose a unified identity structure.

Customize tokens at the edge

Enrich and modify tokens at the edge using our lambda execution layer combining tokens with data.

Reduced Downstream Complexity

By offloading token processing from internal systems to the central Edge Authentication Services.
