    Choosing an identity management solution with strong security measures helps ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of company resources. Ory takes advanced initiatives to prevent data breaches, identity theft, and other security incidents.

  • Authorization

    Auth is more than just login and registration. That's why Ory offers OAuth2 and OIDC, multiple access control paradigms, low-latency permissions checks, and granular permissions capabilities.

  • Portability

    By choosing a solution that has an open source alternative and utilizes open standards, companies can maintain control over their data and avoid being dependent on a particular vendor. This allows for greater agility in responding to changes in the market or business needs, without being hindered by technology limitations or vendor dependencies.
