attack questions

To prevent JWT token replay attacks, implement several security measures. First, use short-lived tokens with expiration claims to limit the time a token is valid. Additionally, consider using refresh tokens to issue new access tokens and invalidate old ones. Implementing nonce values or unique identifiers within the token or request can also help detect and prevent replay attempts. Lastly, ensure that tokens are transmitted over HTTPS to prevent interception and unauthorized reuse.

Session Hijacking occurs when an attacker gains unauthorized access to a user's session, often through stolen session IDs or cookies. Implement session management best practices, use secure cookies, and apply session expiration and regeneration strategies to protect against session hijacking and enhance security.

BcryptJS prevents brute force attacks by using adaptive hashing with configurable salt rounds, which increases the time it takes to compute a hash. This makes it more computationally expensive for attackers to try multiple passwords, enhancing overall security against such attacks.

A rainbow table attack involves using precomputed tables of hash values to quickly find plaintext passwords. BcryptJS mitigates this risk through its unique salting process, ensuring that even identical passwords produce different hashes, making rainbow tables ineffective against BcryptJS hashes.
