Authentication

These are the unique strings of characters generated by an authentication system for MetaDefender Sandbox after a user successfully logs in. Instead of using the username and password for every request, the server issues a token that represents the user's authenticated session.

FieldDescription
EXTERNAL_TOKENS_SECRET_KEYThis is a randomly generated secret key to encrypt external authentication tokens (used by OAuth 2.0). Such tokens are encrypted before they are saved to the database. Do not change the default value.
INTERNAL_TOKENS_SECRET_KEYThis is a randomly generated secret key to encrypt internal tokens. These internal tokens are used within Sandbox for specific tasks like authentication (JWT) and password resets. Encrypting these tokens with a secret key adds a layer of security, and decrypting them allows us to verify their authenticity when users interact with MetaDefender Sandbox.
