RT by @SwiftOnSecurity: Microsoft Entra ID Token Protection is a security feature within Microsoft Entra’s Conditional Access that aims to mitigate token theft by ensuring that a token can only be used from the device it was issued to. This is achieved through a process called token binding, which creates a cryptographically secure link between the token and the device.

If a threat actor were to steal a token, without the corresponding client secret from the device, the token would be rendered useless.

This protection is particularly important because token theft, while relatively rare, can lead to significant security breaches if the threat actor impersonates the victim until the token expires or is revoked.
