New in Spring Security 7: MFA, OAuth2 and more
Daniel Garnier-Moiroux - Broadcom
Spring Security 7 packages a lot of new features, big and small. Probably the most exciting is multi-factor authentication - a feature requested for over a decade! The release also includes OAuth2 enhancements for modern authorization flows, including AI agent integrations via Model Context Protocol, more secure defaults out of the box, and portfolio integration with Jackson 3 support.
Through many demos, this session explores the new MFA APIs in-depth, and showcases the new OAuth2 features. It discusses smaller quality-of-life changes, new defaults and how this impacts existing projects. Lastly, it covers migration paths from version 6.
