Class Token
java.lang.Object
eu.webtoolkit.jwt.auth.Token
An authentication token hash.
An authentication token is a surrogate for identification or authentication. When a random authentication token is generated, it is a good practice to hash it using a cryptographic hash function, and only save this hash in the session or database for later verification. This avoids that a compromised database would leak all the authentication tokens.
