Authenticating user is the process of checking and verifying to see if a given user was registered in the database or not. If he/she was registered, we can write code to allow him/her to get into the restricted areas on the website.
When a user is authenticated, we can create a session to save his/her user data on the cloud in Redis Enterprise database. And for security matter, we can encode user data in a JSON web token (JWT) before saving this token in Redis database on the cloud.
For the reference to the token, we can create a session id using uuid module from Python standard library and store it in a signed cookie. Doing so, the cookie can be seen but cannot be modified. Moreover, we can check to see whether a user was authenticated or not by using session id to pull the JWT from Redis database in order to decode it and see if a user data was encoded into the JWT or not. if the user was authenticated, he/she can go straight into the restricted areas without signing in again.
