Django Code Samples: API Security in Action

What is Django?

Django is an open-source, high-level Python web framework. Django helps developers build applications that are secure by design. The security features of Django make it easier to avoid making common security mistakes, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, cross-site request forgery, and clickjacking. You can integrate the Auth0 by Okta Identity Platform with Django's authentication system to deliver a balance between security, privacy, and convenience to your users.

Auth0 handles billions of login transactions each month. That's only possible because Auth0 is committed to solving complex identity problems by empowering developers with tools that meet their unique security needs and requirements. Please allow us to show you how Auth0 makes identity and security work for you by exploring the Django code samples below.
