JSON Web Token (JWT, suggested pronunciation / dʒ ɒ t /, same as the word "jot" [1]) is a proposed Internet standard for creating data with optional signature and/or optional encryption whose payload holds JSON that asserts some number of claims.
Enables OAuth 2.0 implementations to apply Token Binding to Access Tokens, Authorization Codes, Refresh Tokens, JWT Authorization Grants, and JWT Client Authentication. This cryptographically binds these tokens to a client's Token Binding key pair, possession of which is proven on the TLS connections over which the tokens are intended to be used.

Compared to JSON Web Token (JWT): Holder of macaroon can issue a sub-macaroon with smaller power, while JWT is fixed; Macaroon is notably longer than JWT; Macaroon is equivalent to signed JWT, but does not offer equivalent to encrypted JWT; Compared to Certificates Macaroons are based on a symmetric model, while certificates on asymmetric
JWS can be used for applications in which digitally signed information must be sent in a machine-readable format, such as e-commerce.For example, say a user named Bob is browsing widget prices on a web site (widgets.com), and wishes to get a quote on one of them.
Attribute-based access control (ABAC), also known as policy-based access control for IAM, defines an access control paradigm whereby a subject's authorization to perform a set of operations is determined by evaluating attributes associated with the subject, object, requested operations, and, in some cases, environment attributes.
The authorization certificate works in conjunction with a public key certificate (PKC). While the PKC is issued by a certificate authority (CA) and is used as a proof of identity of its holder like a passport, the authorization certificate is issued by an attribute authority (AA) and is used to characterize or entitle its holder like a visa ...
Along with JSON Web Signature (JWS), it is one of the two possible formats of a JWT (JSON Web Token). JWE forms part of the JavaScript Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) suite of protocols. [ 2 ]
