User authentication in Raynet One is done by the Keycloak software. It supports a wide range of user authentication providers (Google, Microsoft, GitHub) to suit all kind of needs. Session management involves sharing confidential user authentication tokens over secure data channels. Users can be authorized to various parts of the platform using the concept of roles.

JWT bearer authentication tokens are exchanged between Keycloak instance and Raynet One. They contain parameters limiting the access scope granted. The communication channel is secured by Transport Layer Security (TLS). The token validity is checked regularly to ensure user session validity, redirecting users back to the login prompt on verification failure.
