summary	OpenID is a widely adopted open standard that allows users to authenticate with various services using their existing credentials from another site. This summary gives an overview of the concepts related to this protocol: - Discover: To find out about available authentication providers and endpoints. - Workings: The process for authenticating, authorizing (deciding what resources user can access), and obtaining JSON Web Tokens as proof that users are authenticated without sharing their passwords with third-party services directly. This includes using JWTs which encode claims between parties in a secure way; JWS is used to structure these tokens. - Specifications: The technical details defining how OpenID Connect works, including the standards for different parts such as JOSE (JSON Web Algorithms), JWEs, and more detailed specifications that describe its operations clearly are outlined. For instance: - JWT (Json Web Token) can be signed or encrypted with JWS to ensure integrity. - JWE is a way of making a message opaque by encrypting it using another format like JWK for key management purposes – which also ensures the encryption and decryption process remains secure between parties without giving out sensitive information. - Implementations: There are both certified implementations that follow these standards strictly, as well as uncertified ones where services might interpret or modify how OpenID Connect should work according to their own needs. Additionally mentioned is 'OpenID Federation,' which allows for different identity providers (like your bank's login system) and service providers using a common sign-in method without relying on a central authority. It’s also noted that not all systems may be compliant with these standards, leading users into uncertified implementations where they might need to understand the potential security risks involved when dealing directly in such cases. The core idea is for OpenID Connect (a variant of OpenID 2.0) aims at simplifying and making authentication across different platforms easier by using JSON Web Tokens but also emphasizes that not all systems may fully adhere or follow these standards, especially uncertified ones which can pose security risks to users who might need additional caution when dealing with them directly.
