OAuth 2.0 and the Internet of Things (IoT)
summary
Shows how OAuth 2.0 adapts to IoT by turning bearer tokens into proof-of-possession tokens: an authorization server issues an authorization code, the client or device generates a short‑lived key, and the AS embeds that key in a signed/encrypted token so constrained or offline devices (EKG, sensors, test tubes) can validate and decrypt it locally. Uses JWT/JWE and binary CWT formats so the device gets the secret without contacting the AS, which works if trust is pre‑provisioned but requires device provisioning.
