summary	OpenID is an open standard for single sign-on that allows users to be authenticated by certain "trustable" websites after providing credentials only once. It was developed through a partnership between the Internet Identity Alliance (IIS) and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which later became part of the W3C's Trustworthy Computing Activity. OpenID Connect is an authentication protocol that allows clients to verify the identity of end-users based on authentication in several different, delegated permissions using JSON tokens. This was developed by the OpenID Foundation as a standardized extension for OAuth 2 and helps simplify single sign-on (SSO) protocols between websites while providing enhanced security through additional features. JSON Web Tokens (JWTs), JWS (JSON Web Signature), JWE (JSON Web Encryption), JWK (JSON Web Key Set used to create public keys in order that they can be found by any party which has the private key for a given user ID, and JWA (JSON Web Assertion) is closely related technology developed as part of this standard. These technologies provide methods through which OpenID Connect tokens are verified or encrypted. The implementations mentioned below fall under three categories: 1. Certified - these have been reviewed by an independent third party to ensure they meet all standards set in the specifications. 2. Uncertified, but likely following best practices and recommendations as much as possible without formal recognition through a certification process since not many such services are available yet. Finally, OpenID is also related with another specification called 'OpenID Federation (OIDF) which was introduced by Sun Microsystems for enabling developers to create applications that can easily provide users the ability of "log in" using their existing log-in systems. This standard provides a framework within an application and enables its integration into various identity providers including social media, online payment services etc. It uses XACML (Extensible Access Control Markup Language) as part of this implementation to further extend capabilities like delegation. This is how OpenID Connect works in brief: first the user logs on using their existing credentials through an IdP and based upon that they will be provided with a JSON Web Token, which can then used for authentication. This token contains information about user's identity along with other metadata such as time of creation etc., this was built to keep security issues at bay by only sharing minimum required data in the form of tokens making it more challenging for third party websites not related directly (or even indirectly) to you and your IdP. This standard also has been used extensively since 2015 across major social media platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter etc. as well where users can log-in using their existing credentials with just a few clicks which is very helpful in simplifying the login process for such applications too while maintaining security through an added layer of verification provided by the token system. The technology has been widely accepted and used over time across different industries including banking systems due to its robust architecture providing enhanced protection against identity theft as well as potential vulnerabilities. It also allows users more control where they can now decide which data shared with third-party websites based on a per-need basis rather than sharing all available information automatically without any checks in place. The process is simple: you choose an OpenID provider, register for it if required and use that to log into the desired website or platform using your existing credentials. Once logged-in successfully by this IdP's server then you're given access as well along with metadata about what can be accessed while signed-off on a per request basis making sure only authorized data is shared. The process also provides better security through token verification where any attempt to share sensitive information without the user's consent will result in immediate rejection of that transaction and thus preventing misuse. A user may even change providers at later stage with minimum hassle provided all other factors such as compatibility between services are kept intact otherwise it results into a complex situation. To conclude, OpenID Connect is an industry standard which enables secure sign-in using existing credentials while providing additional metadata about the user's identity along with time of log in etc. through JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) to further enhance security by only sharing minimum required data thus minimizing potential for third-party websites getting hold on your information without being authorized explicitly itself either directly or indirectly involved with said site - this makes it a much safer choice when compared other methods currently available which generally have more complex procedures and higher chances of causing errors in handling user input while dealing across different platforms. The technology has been used extensively since 2015 especially for sign-in to social media networks using existing credentials instead having to create new ones specifically designed just for the platform itself. This helps increase security by making it almost impossible as well which one could obtain access even if they managed their way around a previously created account on any such service - thus helping users maintain control over what information is shared with third-party websites based upon per-need basis rather than automatically sharing all data available without checks put in place first. In conclusion, this technology allows for better security through enhanced protection against identity theft and minimizes potential vulnerabilities across different platforms since it enables single sign-on using existing credentials while providing additional metadata about the user's ID along with token verification that only authorizes specific information being shared as per need which results into a much safer choice over current methods available in handling user data. I hope this helps you understand how OpenID Connect works and its specifications for authentication processes across various platforms including social media networks where it has been used since 2015 primarily using existing credentials instead of creating new ones specifically designed just for the platform itself - increasing overall security through minimizing potential errors while dealing with different services online.
