Developed robust API authentication and authorization features for the Purdue-ACM-SIGAPP/housing-backend repository, focusing on enhancing security for backend endpoints. Leveraging ASP.NET Core and C#, the work introduced JWT Bearer token authentication integrated with Auth0, ensuring secure identity verification for API consumers. A custom scope-based authorization handler was implemented to enforce permissions based on 'scope' claims, laying the groundwork for future role-based access control. All changes were validated through existing automated tests, with no critical bugs reported during the period. This effort strengthened the backend’s security posture and provided a scalable foundation for managing access to protected resources.
