4. Security Enhancements

4. Security Enhancements

At Camms, we are committed to enhancing the security of our application. After thorough assessment, we have identified an opportunity to improve authentication token security. This involves the introduction of one-time tokens, these unique tokens are designed to provide an additional layer of protection against potential unauthorised access and with reduced expiration periods of those tokens, serving as mandatory security enhancement.

These measures represent a crucial and effective security enhancement, demonstrating our dedication to proactive security measures.

Benefits of secure tokens:

  • Security: By encapsulating user identity and permissions, secure tokens reduce the need to transmit sensitive data with each request, minimising the risk of interception and unauthorised access.

  • Statelessness: Secure tokens enable stateless authentication, meaning the server doesn't need to keep a record of tokens. This simplifies the architecture and scalability of applications.

  • Flexibility: JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) are widely supported and can be used in a variety of applications, from web to mobile and even IoT devices.
