Authentication and Authorization Service

This is a Spring Boot-based microservice designed to handle user authentication and authorization. It uses JWT (JSON Web Token) for secure and stateless communication.

Features

• User Authentication: Verifies user credentials and generates JWT tokens for sessionless authentication.
• User Authorization: Ensures users can only access resources they are permitted to.
• JWT Integration: Encodes user details and permissions in a secure, stateless manner.
• Role-based Access Control (RBAC): Supports different user roles with customizable permissions.
• Secure Password Handling: Passwords are stored using strong encryption (e.g., BCrypt).
• REST API Endpoints: Easy-to-use endpoints for login, registration, and authorization checks.
