Understanding OpenID Connect

OpenID Connect is an authentication protocol that allows applications to verify the identity of a user based on the authentication performed by an authorization server. It provides a way for users to log in to multiple applications using one set of credentials. OpenID Connect uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization and adds an identity layer on top of it, making it a framework for secure identity verification across different systems.
