About this tag
Token management is a recurring theme in discussions about Microsoft cloud services, particularly around security and access control. Recent threads on WindowsForum.com highlight how improper token management can lead to vulnerabilities, such as over-permissive OAuth scopes in Microsoft OneDrive that expose user data, and privilege escalation in Azure Databricks.

These examples show that token management is critical for maintaining secure and reliable cloud environments, especially in enterprise IT settings where Azure and Microsoft 365 are heavily used.
