Automatically add Authentication & Authorization to PowerServer, with Visual Guard
summary
Visual Guard plugs into PowerServer to add token-based authentication, fine‑grained authorization and audit logging without coding, replacing or extending username/password with Windows single sign-on, OAuth2, MFA and custom Identity Server flows. It generates tokens with claims, enforces auth on Web API middleware, dynamically hides UI controls and sets DataWindow filters (example: territory_id = 7), and supports permission sets, nested permission hierarchies and group-based user assignment. Deployment is: install console, create SQL repository, install IdentityServer, add Visual Guard libraries and middleware — usually under an hour.
