Hi, I’m using Cassandra in an environment where many users can login to use an application I’m developing. I’m curious if anyone has any advice or links to documentation / blogs where it discusses common implementations or best practices for user and password authentication. My cursory search online didn’t bring much up on the subject. I suppose the information needn’t even be specific to Cassandra.
I imagine a few basic steps will be as follows: user types in username (e.g. email address) and password this is verified against a table storing username and passwords (encrypted in some way) a token is return to the app / web browser to allow further transactions using secure token (e.g. cookie) Obviously I’m only scratching the surface and it’s the detail and best practices of implementing this user / password authentication that I’m curious about. Thank you, Ben
