Imagine you are responsible for defining and implementing a Zero Trust strategy in your company. The name of this security model was coined in 2010 by John Kindervag after he identified the need not to trust any user or device to access a resource until their identity was verified. The philosophy was completely changed and evolved from a claim that could be summarised as “trust, but verify” to “never trust, always verify”.
In this sense, if you need to implement an authoritative control channel architecture by introducing an additional layer of security to reduce the exposure time of operations, has an innovative tool that breaks the rules of the game: TU Latch. Is an authorisation control platform powered by security latches that gives you exactly what you need, allowing you to focus on what really matters: delivering a seamless and secure user experience.
Latch plugins and SDKs are tools designed to make it easier for developers to integrate digital solution capabilities.
What are TU Latch plugins?
A plugin is a software component that adds specific functionality to an existing application. They are widely used to extend or enhance the capability of a platform without the need to modify its code base. In the case of Latch, plugins are tools that allow you to integrate your latch system and other applications quickly and easily.
In other words, the main purpose of these plugins is to simplify the process of integration into third-party applications. Instead of requiring developers to rewrite large parts of the code or design the authentication system from scratch, the plugins act as a “bridge” that connects the Latch functionality to the application infrastructure in which it will be used.
What is the integration process like?
The integration of a plugin generally follows a straightforward process. The first step is to install the appropriate plugin for the development environment or platform you are using, such as a CMS, or mobile applications. Once installed, the plugin establishes communication between the application in which it is deployed and the Latch services. This allows the application to take advantage of all the security features offered by Latch without having to program these processes from scratch.
In the TU Tech Talks we cover the process of how to use and integrate Latch into different services, such as WordPress plugins.
What are TU Latch SDKs?

An SDK (Software Development Kit) is a set of tools, documentation and code samples that allow developers to integrate a specific functionality into their applications or platforms. Instead of having to write all the code from scratch, an SDK provides all the resources needed to use a given technology or service efficiently.
In the case of Latch, SDKs allow developers to integrate Latch into their applications, whether for mobile, web or other software environments. Through these development kits, you gain control over how you manage the operations to be protected by the users and the advanced security features offered by Latch.
How is the installation process?
The process of running an SDK starts with its proper installation according to the platform (iOS, Android, or web), followed by the configuration of security parameters to connect the application with the TU Latch services.
Once configured, the SDK allows API calls to manage those operations that require authorisation control and to customise the user flow according to the needs of the project. They allow for efficient error handling, ensuring that authentication problems do not affect the user experience.
Latch plugins and SDKs are essential for easily integrating secure and reliable authorisation controls into your applications. On the one hand, plugins allow you to implement quickly and smoothly depending on the platforms you are using, while SDKs offer greater flexibility and control, adapting to the particular needs of your project and the programming language you are using. With Latch, not only do you have access to a reliable and flexible platform, but you can also incorporate advanced authorisation controls without compromising the user experience. The perfect solution to protect your application without the hassle.
Both Latch plugins and Latch SDKs are essential tools to integrate your digital service robustly and securely into your applications in an efficient way. By choosing Latch as your solution, you get a reliable and flexible platform that makes it easy to implement advanced access controls without compromising the user experience.
