AppFusion prioritizes the security of our products to ensure that your data and interactions are protected. Our robust security framework combines advanced token-based authorization with comprehensive cloud-based security measures, providing you with a secure and reliable solution. 

Token-Based Authorization

1. Enhanced Security

• AppFusion employs token-based authorization to secure user access. Unique tokens are generated for each session or request, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access. These tokens are short-lived and can be easily invalidated if necessary, ensuring that even if a token is compromised, it cannot be used indefinitely.

2. Stateless Architecture

• By utilizing a stateless architecture, AppFusion does not store session information on the server. Each request includes all necessary authentication data within the token, reducing the risk of session hijacking and simplifying server management.

3. Granular Access Control

• Our token-based system allows for fine-grained access control. Tokens can be configured with specific scopes and permissions, ensuring users only have access to the resources and actions they need. This minimizes the attack surface and enhances overall security.

Cloud-Based Security

1. Data Encryption

• AppFusion leverages advanced encryption protocols to protect data both at rest and in transit. All data stored in our cloud infrastructure is encrypted using industry-standard encryption methods, ensuring that your data remains confidential and secure.

2. Regular Security Audits

• Our cloud-based infrastructure undergoes regular security audits and assessments to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities. These audits ensure that our security measures are up-to-date and effective against emerging threats.

3. Compliance and Certifications

• AppFusion complies with leading industry standards and regulations, such as ISO 22301 and ISO 27001. Our cloud infrastructure is certified to meet these standards, providing you with assurance that your data is handled in accordance with best practices.

4. Continuous Monitoring and Threat Detection

• Our cloud infrastructure is equipped with continuous monitoring and threat detection capabilities. We use advanced monitoring tools to detect and respond to suspicious activities in real time, ensuring swift action against potential threats.

5. Disaster Recovery and Backup

• AppFusion’s cloud infrastructure includes robust disaster recovery and backup mechanisms. Regular backups are performed to ensure data integrity and availability, allowing for quick recovery in the event of a data loss incident.

6. Access Control and Identity Management

• We utilize advanced access control and identity management solutions to manage user access and permissions. This ensures that only authorized personnel can access sensitive data and resources, further securing your information.

By integrating token-based authorization with comprehensive cloud-based security measures, AppFusion provides a secure, scalable, and reliable solution for your business needs. Our commitment to security ensures that your data is protected against threats and vulnerabilities, giving you peace of mind while using our products.

Authorization with Credentials

To authenticate and obtain a valid token and refresh token for accessing the AppFusion API, you will need to use your application’s credentials. Here is an example demonstrating how to use the credentials to get the tokens:

Step 1: Obtain Tokens

First, send a POST request to the authorization endpoint with your application’s credentials:

Endpoint: https://{appFusionEndpoint}/api/Auth/authenticateApplication

Request body:
{
“applicationName”: “App1”,
“applicationSecret”: “s3cr3t”
}
Response:
{
“accessToken”:”eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9…”,
“refreshToken”: “dGhpcyBpcyBhIHJlZnJlc2ggdG9rZW4gZXhhbXBsZQ…”
}

In the response, you will receive two tokens: accessToken and refreshToken.

Step 2: Use the Access Token

The accessToken is used to authenticate API requests. Include it in the Authorization header of your requests.

Refresh Token

A refresh token is a long-lived token that is used to obtain a new access token once the current one expires. Unlike access tokens, which are short-lived and designed to protect against misuse, refresh tokens have a longer lifespan.

How to Use a Refresh Token

When the access token expires, use the refresh token to request a new access token:

Endpoint: https://{appFusionEndpoint}/api/Auth/refreshApplicationToken

Request body:
{
“refreshToken”: “dGhpcyBpcyBhIHJlZnJlc2ggdG9rZW4gZXhhbXBsZQ…”
}

Response:

{
“accessToken”: “newAccessTokenValue…”,
“refreshToken”: “newRefreshTokenValue…”
}

In this response, you receive a new accessToken and a new refreshToken. Update your stored tokens with these new values.

By using access and refresh tokens effectively, AppFusion ensures secure and efficient access to its APIs, enhancing both security and user experience.
