Edusign uses a Token (valid for 8 hours) to authorize your actions and a Refresh Token (valid for 4 weeks) to renew your connection automatically without having to re-enter your credentials.
🌐 The Token: Your Temporary Access Proof
When you log into the Edusign application, the system issues you a Token (access token). This token acts as a digital badge proving you are authorized to access your account.
Validity Duration: 8 hours.
Security: Automatic expiration limits the risk of unauthorized access if your session is compromised.
♻️ The Refresh Token: For Seamless Connection
To save you from having to manually reconnect every 8 hours, Edusign uses a Refresh Token (renewal token).
Functioning: When the Token expires, the Refresh Token automatically generates a new access token in the background, without interrupting your navigation.
Validity Duration: 4 weeks
Storage: It is stored securely on your device.
Do not confuse the Token (immediate and short access) with the Refresh Token (long-term renewal key)! ⏱️
🔒 Enhance Security with Biometrics
You can enhance the protection of your Refresh Token by enabling biometrics in your app's settings.
Use: Once enabled, using the renewal key will require your fingerprint or Face ID.
Advantage: Even if your phone is unlocked, no one but you will be able to refresh the app's session!
