You can specify this within the <<_timeouts, timeouts page>>. Short lifespans (minutes) for access tokens for clients and applications to refresh their access tokens after a short amount of time. If an admin detects a leak, they can logout all user sessions to invalidate these refresh tokens or set up a revocation policy. Making sure refresh tokens always stay private to the client and are never transmitted ever is very important as well. +You can also mitigate against leaked access tokens and refresh tokens by issuing these tokens as holder-of-key tokens. See <<_mtls-client-certificate-bound-tokens, OAuth 2.0 Mutual TLS Client Certificate Bound Access Token>> to learn how. + If an access token or refresh token is compromised, the first thing you should do is go to the admin console and push a not-before revocation policy to all applications. This will enforce that any tokens issued prior to that date are now invalid. Pushing new not-before policy will also ensure that application will be forced to download new public keys from {project_name}, hence it is also useful for the case, when you think that realm signing key was compromised.
