Welcome

OAuth for Spring Security provides an OAuth implementation for Spring Security. Support is provided for the implementation of OAuth providers and OAuth consumers. There is also support for two-legged OAuth (a.k.a. "Signed Fetch") and for OAuth 2.0.

Applying security to an application is not for the faint of heart, and OAuth is no exception. Before you get started, you're going to want to make sure you understand OAuth and the problem it's designed to address. There is good documentation at the OAuth site. You will also want to make sure you understand how Spring and Spring Security work.

With that, you're ready to get started. You'll want to see OAuth for Spring Security in action and read a more detailed explanation in the developers guide.

If you run into problems or have other questions, use the forum. Keep in mind that commercial support is also available.
