https://business.forums.bt.com/t5/Broadband/Securing-APIs-Against-Token-Theft/m-p/95074#M18343 <P>Hello,<BR />In modern web development, API security is paramount—especially when it comes to protecting authentication tokens. What are the best strategies for developers to prevent token leakage or theft, particularly in client-side applications? Explore methods such as secure cookie usage, token rotation, proper CORS policies, and storing secrets in trusted environments. Discuss trade-offs between bearer tokens and session-based auth, and how tools like CSP and JWT claims can reinforce security. Share practical implementations and common pitfalls developers should avoid when designing secure and scalable APIs.<BR /><BR />Best Regards,<BR />James Henry</P> Wed, 09 Jul 2025 10:54:27 GMT james698henry 2025-07-09T10:54:27Z https://business.forums.bt.com/t5/Broadband/Securing-APIs-Against-Token-Theft/m-p/95074#M18343 <P>Hello,<BR />In modern web development, API security is paramount—especially when it comes to protecting authentication tokens.
