Authentication method

Does Marketo provide any advance authentication methods  beyond basic?  I was not able to find any reference to any advance methods and want to make sure I am not missing anything. Thank you.

With the authentication do you mean REST API authentication? Is so then Marketo’s REST APIs are authenticated with 2-legged OAuth 2.0. Client IDs and Client Secrets are provided by custom services that you define. Each custom service is owned by an API-Only user which has a set of roles and permissions which authorize the service to perform specific actions. An access token is associated with a single custom service. Access token expiration is independent of tokens associated with other custom services that may be present in an instance.

    Thanks @darshil_shah1 . It is definitely beyond my technical knowledge, but I understand there is a Certificate based Authentication method. I am trying to understand if this has been explored by any community members.

    Client cert auth for the REST API?  Nothing like that is documented, like Darshil says it's OAuth Bearer (which is not Basic).
