Secure Authentication & Role-Based Access

Secure Authentication & Role-Based Access System

This project demonstrates a production-ready authentication and authorization system built using modern full-stack best practices.

The system includes secure JWT-based authentication, password hashing with bcrypt, role-based access control, and protected API routes using middleware.

Key features:

• JWT authentication with HttpOnly cookies • Password hashing and verification (bcrypt) • Role-based access control (admin / user) • Middleware route protection • Secure API handling with token verification • Serverless-ready deployment

This architecture is suitable for SaaS platforms and applications requiring secure user management.
