Hello to all our product creators! This one goes out to you. We take our promise of equipping you with all the tools you need to build your connected product on Particle very seriously. Today, I’m excited to share with you a **brand new page on the documentation dedicated to authentication and security for product creators**. As part of our guide on _How to Build a Product_, this section is a deep dive into technical topics around architecting your mobile or web application to interact with the Particle cloud. [https://docs.particle.io/guide/how-to-build-a-product/authentication/](https://docs.particle.io/guide/how-to-build-a-product/authentication/). Understanding the details of this documentation is essential for anyone building a customer-facing mobile or web application for a Particle-powered product. Many specific implementation details are still being worked on by our awesome mobile and JavaScript teams. Expect this to be fleshed out over the next few weeks. I’m sure there will be plenty of questions to follow. Let’s use this thread as a centralized place to discuss topics around authentication and security. Happy building! Jeff ---
