Integrate CyberArk Identity Java SDK

Overview

The CyberArk Identity Java SDK for web apps provides a high-performance framework to help you quickly and easily integrate CyberArk's Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) services within your web application built on the Java framework. Using the CyberArk Identity SDK, you can incorporate a rich set of authentication factors, such as QR Code authentication and push authentication, to provide users with a seamless and secure end-user experience for your websites.

CyberArk Identity Java SDK also enables you to provide a rich and seamless authentication and authorization experience to the web app using the industry standard protocols such as OIDC. The SDK also allows user registrations in the web app for secure user onboarding.

The SDK also enables web apps to integrate MFA widgets for secondary or step-up authentication.

The Java angular sample app provides examples of how the CyberArk Identity can be leveraged and helps accelerate the development and integration process.
