Validity Timeperiod of Auth Hash Value

Postby aseemgarg321 » March 1st, 2017, 1:04 pm

hi,

I can see that when we create Valid Auth Hash Key, It makes use of Time in Seconds to create a fresh Auth Hash Key.
Which means a new key will be created every Second.

But what is validity of these keys.. I mean for how long will they be valid?

I am trying to use keys which are 5 mins old and I am still able to Authenticate for this user..
But i tried an Hour old key and i was not able to Authenticate..

So what exactly is Time limit to each calculated Hash Key..

Thanks,
Aseem

Somewhere between 5 minutes and an hour, obviously. :D

(15 minutes)

Just Wondering, isnt that too much..
I guess few seconds should be enough.
also reducing time will reduce the risk of Hacking, Even if AuthCode is stolen..
