Question 580
A mobile app stores long-lived bearer tokens in an unprotected shared directory. What is the MOST appropriate analyst action based on the evidence?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Tokens function as credentials and require confidentiality at rest. Protect mobile bearer tokens.
Incorrect Answers
Controlled rate limits reduce automated guessing while retaining service availability. It would mitigate authentication brute force responsibly, but it would not protect mobile bearer tokens.
Removing browser UI does not necessarily revoke an existing session. It could help enforce session invalidation after logout, but it would not protect mobile bearer tokens.
Reusable reset links create persistent credential takeover opportunities. That is relevant to authentication and session vulnerabilities, not to protect mobile bearer tokens.
