<p>now that I think of it, one could use certificate authentication instead of JWT</p>
<p>this has several advantages:</p>
<ul>
<li>mobile phones grow more and more towards offering an embedded secure element. I.e. a mobile phone can use its secure element to store the certificate</li>
<li>does client authentication in TLS/SSL needs to be a fully-fledged domain certificate? if so, one can just implement a challenge-response thingy for authentication</li>
<li>certificate pinning can get your authentication sorted</li>
<li>one can use the certificate pinning stuff for localhost access as well</li>
<li>did I miss anything?</li>
</ul>
