Configuration
These are the unique strings of characters generated by an authentication system for MetaDefender Sandbox after a user successfully logs in. Instead of using the username and password for every request, the server issues a token that represents the user's authenticated session.

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| EXTERNAL_TOKENS_SECRET_KEY | External tokens are tokens issued by an external service or system for the purpose of authentication or authorization. Such tokens are encrypted before it is saved to the database. |
| INTERNAL_TOKENS_SECRET_KEY | Internal tokens are used internally within the sandbox for specific tasks like authentication and password resets. Encrypting these tokens with a secret key adds a layer of security, and decrypting them allows us to verify their authenticity when users interact with MetaDefender Sandbox.
