The document discusses bringing authentication to MVC applications using social logins and OAuth/OpenID. It begins with an introduction and survey, then covers traditional login screens, using social media for authentication, OAuth and OpenID standards, and ASP.NET Identity in MVC 5. A demo is provided of implementing social login authentication. The document recommends leveraging social logins where appropriate and expanding user profile information using provider SDKs.
