I have an implementation for an internal API, the requirement is to implement some sort of basic authentication instead of oauth (generating a token).

Do you think there’s any difference between using just an API key vs using a client id + secret?
For what I see it’d be just like saying “using a password” vs “using a user and a password”.

    The modern way of thinking about security of internal networks is to assume there is no such thing (marketing term: Zero Trust).
