The Rock driving meme with the Rock saying "We should use OAuth 2.0 with PKCE for secure authorization" and the girl saying "You're storing tokens in localStorage"

Security at rest is as important as security in transit.

fusionauth.io/articles/oau... has guidelines for storing those OAuth access tokens.

Cognito M2M price shock?
100K tokens + 100 clients = $825/mo
50M tokens + 1K clients = $66,487/mo 😱
FusionAuth handles the same for $350-1800/mo
Break-even: 10K requests + 20 clients
More than that? Time to switch 👇

They evaluated their options methodically: Auth0, Amazon Cognito, SuperTokens, Keycloak. Each had trade-offs.
So why did WeRoad choose @FusionAuth?
It wasn't just features or cost savings.
It was about control.
