<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
|
||
<p>When an XMPP client is negotiating a stream with an XMPP server, it typically needs to perform authentication and authorization. Typically stream negotiation requires providing a password on each connection attempt. Naturally this means that an XMPP client needs to store password: reconnections are very frequent on some types of clients, asking a user to provide a password on each reconnect would result in a very bad user experience.</p>
|
||
<p>This results in increased security threats associated with storing account password on physical device: password can be extracted from this device by whoever gains access to it. Also, a user can't revoke access to clients without changing password. More, password change won't help to immediately revoke access from a device with established connection.</p>
|
||
<p>This document describes a method address mentioned issues and provide more security for users. The idea is to use XMPP-based tokens, which allow to control client sessions.</p>
