I need DC Nuclear Winter Kara Zor El to replace mainline-canon Kara
Tumblr media
I need this more seasoned, tougher/older Kara to replace the cheerleader, vanilla supertoken cosplayer.
NW Kara looks like see’s seen shit, done things, been there, experienced. And she has her own life now with this little one.
So sick of looking at this: 
Tumblr media
Just eye candy, glorified Superman cosplayer with no impact or real relevance (Correction: She’s had impact but usually when she fucking died lol), when most of the Robins have more going for them in terms of storytelling intrigue than Supergirl, there’s a problem.. 
Cause every time she dies an honorable death or a good idea or concept is introduced for her (Red Lanter/Daughter of Darkseid), DC just keeps bringing her back to square ‘BLAND’ one.
Fact is, she needs to stop riding Superman’s coattails & do something else.
Become a plumber, something, anything. jfc.
OR like when the Viltrumies infiltrated Earth to live normal lives per the Thragg/Mark/Nolan truce
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Have her raise her child with a spouse (male/female) out in Norway or something, she’s a First Responder and she can take care of situations/dangers with her powers when they show up, very lowkey.
She doesn’t want to be a costumed “superhero”, but wants to help. Then when big Crisis events happen, she gets involved in Kryptonian Ceremonial garment.
Or do everything i said.... just on ANOTHER PLANET- where a full-blooded Kryptonian would be needed. 
That’s different enough from Clark to where she can do hero stuff, live a life, and it’s not her wearing his colors just for the sake of it. Like she’s following the trend or something.
Tumblr media
Superboy Conner, clone of Lex & Kal, serious identity crisis story. 
Tumblr media
Young Justice Superboy, a lot more mortality, acceptance of self, also anger issues, & other lessons learned with this version of Conner.
Tumblr media
Then Clark Kent (Prime) who was such an unstable mess, killed so many, while believing he was the hero. Dude was menace.
Eventually ended up getting his shit together and saving everyone, multiverse scale.
SERIOUS fall from grace/redemption story.
Tumblr media
In terms of Superman Lore: SUPERBOY PRIME is how you do a knock-off Supertoken- right.
I’m going to commit to skimming through her recent arcs to see if there’s anything worth reading (Supergirl Rebirth #1 was underwhelming) DC REALLY needs to venture out their comfort zone & canonize something different for Kara. 
Red Hood is proof that a spinoff character doesn’t have to coattail ride the original template; She doesn’t need to pull a “Supergirl being SUPER” & basically be Clark.
Let her be something of her own, and what that is doesn’t have to be entirely nice or appealing, which is where her staying power is, just a cutesy female superman. RULE 63 Gimmick appeal
Guarantee you, as soon they do that, she’ll evolve beyond that surface level appeal and will blow up & actually have a stake in the DC Universe beyond being token female superman and being present in Crisis events.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Otherwise she’ll remain in the hamster wheel cycle of being a non-factor, side attraction.
I’ve read some of the Danvers matrix arc back in the day, weird but i appreciate the attempt BACK then to do something different. Wouldn’t mind if they brought her back.
Tumblr media
Read some New52 Supergirl, bought the #1 day 1 it dropped back in 2011, hated her goddamn suit. Really liked her anger issues/flaws, & how that tied into Red Lantern but ofc that didn’t last.
The Batman/Superman debut for her introduced the Darkseid thing ofc not only did that not go anywhere but they killed her, as she died saving Superman, Superman’s alone again, which is his part of tragedy, good. 
She died honorably.............
....then she came back anyway, lmfao.
Hell i prefer Caitlin Fairchild over Supergirl
Smart as shit brawler, on the shy side, yet ironically the bonified LEADER of her team because she knows what she’s doing. 
Not a knockoff of anyone, the one & only Fairchild of Gen13.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nuclear Winter, as simple as it was is worthy of being canon. I want an animated short for this, the works.
KARA In-Ze is in fact THE BEST Kara take in post 2000 just by not being Kal’s miracle Fanfic cousin, but NW Kara is close 2nd because of how off-brand she looks. And the actual story, like Mad Max but Older Kara..
One of the most interesting Kara’s for me in years and all they did was get rid of the midriff & skirt, the girl next door appeal, allow her to grow up and adopt a child; Now she has a real, tangible responsibility.
Something of her own. And that is something they did right vs the DCAU where she just got gaga eyes for Brainiac all of sudden.
DCAU did right by divorcing her from the EL House ( only because DC wouldn’t let Timm use Kara Zor-El, thankfully) and Nuclear Winter did right (by her responsibility not being a love interest) 
Not that a partner isn’t a good stake (I’ve suggested Kara having a family myself many times) but the way NW did it? Better than my own pitch ngl.
simple things.

Token black
Tumblr media
#Token black verification#
In one instance, Cartman got arrested and sent to juvie hall after throwing a rock at Tolkien's head. He is the richest kid in South Park and also one of the only black kids. Tolkien is a member of the boy's 4th grade class. 6 Other Alter Egos/Outfits/Counterparts.Join us if you have any questions or need any help. Written by the Folks at SuperTokens - hope you enjoyed! We are always available on our Discord server. SuperTokens uses this method to harness all the benefits of using JWTs while mitigating many of their disadvantages by combining them with opaque tokens.įurthermore, changing the refresh token on each use adds additional security benefits like being able to detect session hijacking. If this sounds ideal for your use case, check out SuperTokens’ implementation of this session flow. In this way, you keep one of the key benefits of using JWTs and that’s the fact that you don’t have to keep accessing the database on each API call to verify the JWT - you only need to do a database lookup when refreshing the session - which happens relatively rarely. But, because you can make those JWTs much more short-lived (even just a few mins), you should find that it’s not too big a problem. Note that this doesn’t solve the problem of still-valid JWTs existing on the client. Then, when the refresh endpoint is called, the server looks up the opaque token, sees that it has expired, and logs the user out. The benefits of this approach is that if you want to revoke access, then all you need to do is invalidate the opaque token on the server side. The advantages and disadvantages of issuing two tokens and of implementing refresh token rotation The client then uses this new JWT to make subsequent requests and the process continues. This process is known as refresh token rotation. When the JWT expires, the client then uses the opaque refresh token to request a new JWT and a new opaque refresh token. When the user attempts to access a resource, they send the JWT access token along with every request. When a user is granted access, both of these tokens are sent to the client. In this workflow, when the user logs in, the server issues a both short-lived JWT (the access token), and a long-lived opaque token (the refresh token). Instead, what we advocate is a solution for session management that combines the respective strengths of both JWTs and opaque tokens. If you maintain a blacklist/deny list and have to query it on every API call, then you’ve lost that advantage.
#Token black verification#
The biggest advantage of JWTs is that they make session verification fast. But is it the best way of handling this situation? So now you see that this concept of a JWT blacklist/deny list is relatively easy to implement. You can find a working version of this example on Github. Unlike the JWT blacklist, this entry won’t have an expiry time associated with it. To solve this issue, you should add the ability to blacklist a user’s userID via redis and check that blacklist as well during JWT verification. The problem is that you won’t know what the user’s access token is at that time, and therefore you won’t know what to put in the cache. However, this won’t help if you want to deny access to a user who hasn’t logged out and whose token is still valid. Repeat the POST request to the home route above and you’ll get an HTTP 403 Forbidden error, with a message "JWT Rejected". Now the user’s JWT is technically still valid (until it expires), but now it’s in the blacklist/deny list and will therefore be intercepted on subsequent requests. header 'Authorization: Bearer 7XtK3PJVgvjevrHabeImqJyRoUDiXejDhVK5yM' We’ll set the key to expire when the token itself expires, so as not to fill up Redis with lots of expired tokens. When this endpoint is hit, the user’s JWT is persisted to Redis, using the format bl_ for the key, and the value being the actual token. Let’s create another route that will simulate a user logging out. That’s all well and good, but at the moment you have no way to revoke a JWT, so there’s nothing in the blacklist/deny list. Now what will happen is that any time the user you created earlier attempts to visit your home route ( /), the JWT they supply will be checked against the blacklist/deny list first and then verified before being granted access.

What is supertokenism and how can organizations avoid it?
What is supertokenism and how can organizations avoid it?
Last week marked the second anniversary of Black Square Tuesday. In the summer of 2020, design firms and institutions made up of some of the 28 million Instagram users (including myself) posted Black Squares in solidarity with #BlackLivesMatter. Like most other Black folks, I was skeptical of the action as I had experienced performative allyship before. The skepticism was so widespread that…

PART 4 1. PIGGYRIDE - IN ADDITION TO ABOVE ,the startup is trying to change the way kids are learning, be it through its discovery platform or through school fee financing. 2. REPUTE - Repute is currently working with several rentals, background verification and fintech companies, as it believes that the consumer trend is heading towards renting assets and borrowing credits. 3. PIXXEL - In the long run, these satellites will act as a catalyst to open-up rapid inexpensive access to the entire solar system – by deploying swarms of Pixxel’s satellites, exploring the moon, Mars and any other planetary body for potential landing sites becomes easier, identifying water and other precious resources on the moon, Mars and asteroids becomes cheaper and exploring any planetary body in the solar system becomes much more accessible than it is today. 4. SKYROOT -The startup’s vision is to make space-flight as reliable, responsive and economic as air flight. In a major milestone, the company successfully test-fired its upper stage rocket engine named “Raman” and also demonstrated India’s first 100% 3D-printed bi-propellant liquid rocket engine injector, which as compared to traditional manufacturing reduced the overall mass by 50%. 5. STACK FINANCE - There is growing interest among millennials to understand the right way to save money. Stack Finance, which is currently a part of Rebalance Accelerator Cohort 2, is one such startup who are providing such facilities . 6. SUPERTOKENS -Sessions are becoming a prominent attack vector and web apps must detect identity theft using rotating refresh tokens. It thus allows businesses to keep their users logged in for longer on their apps. It also provides a frontend and backend SDK that developers can implement. 7. Teachmint - TEACHMINT IS enabling teachers with the right digital tools so that they can run their classes efficiently and take their own unique styles of teaching to many more students .

Superman: The Animated Series (Recommended)
Tumblr media
I roasted this back in the day because of how tame his power level was, but this is a young Superman story done right.
This show tackles cool characters & concepts ranging from Mxy to Darkseid to the Legion of Superheroes.
And featuring a Kara (NOT Bore-El) surprisingly that doesn't piss me off with her very existence. Imagine my surprise to find out she's NOT miraculously Superman's Cousin who ALSO just happened to survive the explosion because Jor-EL just HAPPENED to have a brother who JUST HAPPENED to be a Scientist who HAPPENED to have exact same idea to Kara but for some reason not himself or his wife.
Fan-fic tier garbage. GARBAGE.
But Kara In-Ze decent, she's a good kid.
In fact, I wish Kara In-Ze was in that Superman Returns deleted scene when he went back to Krypton, and he finds her on Argo or something. Some of kind of payoff for that 5 years he was gone
Tumblr media
Back to the show. Clark is a sassy, witty chad.
He's not some Him-bro purse puppy like someone else I know in recent memory I wish I could carve out of my skull. He's a vanilla dork big-brother (like Welling's take) who's underwhelming enough to sell the role but not overdoing it to point it's cartoonish & annoying.
He’s good at his job, both of them. And the more times he puts on the cape, the more the universe expands, the guy just attracts trouble and all he’s tryna do is the right thing.
Tumblr media
I thought initially him not being overtly geeky would've defeated the illusion but in fact he's still so bland as a person compared to Superman he doesn't have to go out of his way to try not be suspicious, which now that i'm thinking about it would make him more suspicious.
And the sass carries over to Superman, this character (from here to JLU) cops attitude A LOT, it's funny see. A very human Superman with a wide range of emotions as he's in this Superhero career, yet stoic and collected and I love it.
Stubborn as an Ox at times, especially as he gets older & develops more of an ego. He's a leader, but not beyond all reason. A good guy, reliable, very human.
In fact, in a lot of ways, a Shonen protagonist with a hint of slice of life..
I like this guy.
Tumblr media
Besides Smallville/ Superman/Superman & Lois/ hell even that Lois & Clark show was charming-
This is THE post-modern Superman, done right.
Honorable mention: 40's Fleischer Superman
Tumblr media
I recommend TAS to JL & JLU, since it is technically one timeline (though JL S1 he was nerfed to shit), but it's all part of his story.
Tumblr media
Top 3 favorite Lois Lanes of all time. 
youtube
The music is so peaceful, grandiose at the same time. The composer (Shirley Walker *Rest in peace*) did the tracks justice, she did her part to bring this project to life with a sound reminiscent of Williams work.
I really like the Retro-Futuristic aesthetic of Metropolis and various other set pieces compared to Gotham & Smallville, it genuinely looks like a city of the future. Reminds me of the Jetsons
The character writing has that old-school wit to it, it's mature. Well executed. Where most of the characters sound witty, snarky but professional it has the 40s - 1950s chemistry. Very solid. Vs these days where most characters are random, loud, quirky, talk too much and just annoying lol
As far as Superman lore goes, one of the few things they didn't put in there was Eradicator, Superboy, etc. This show COVERS a lot of the groundwork of Superman content. 3 Seasons+ of content- even Livewire is in here.
If I were to have a complaint (and no it's not Kara), it would be the pre-Singer/Snyder era of how his powers are presented and engineered into visual/sound format. I really like how Singer introduced Superman causing sonic-booms
Tumblr media
-and how Zack translated his power into fights.
In TAS show it lacks the aesthetic, the punch/emphasis, he's strong but.... it doesn't lean into it enough for me at times.
Kind of like how My Hero Academia has the visuals down 10/10 but the SOUND EFFECTS are soooooo weak, just a punch of whooshes 24/7, it's so frustrating lol.
Tumblr media
Again, It's very tame but while it's underwhelming, how he flies is sort of majestic, like he's gliding on the air, very angelic.
And he is young and the later installments pick it up eventually.
Tumblr media
And as shown Supergirl represents some good feats too (And I am proud to say that because I actually like this version of Kara)
Surprisingly My Adventures with Lois-Chan tried to mix it up with the sfx & action, but even that show was lacking in so so so many areas, but I'm going to leave that alone for now.
Tumblr media
Superman: TAS
grounded Superman version Zack should've did more homework on. Cavill deserved to act-adapt this Superman.

Miles isn’t bad, just overrated
Tumblr media
”wild to me”, as in how could you not like him?
  Mind you they’re leaving out continuity, origin differences, the fact some aren't mantles but actual RANKS (GL), Fate/Nabu is more an Entity than a mantle. (debatable, yes)
Tumblr media
Barry to Jay is Jim Hammond Human Torch to Johnny Storm’s Torch- existed in different times
 Hammond was an Allies soldier
Johnny is a modern Superhero whose power is cosmic in isolation
Leaving out context to make a moot point. 
I was there day one Miles’ story began, and i loyally bought his stuff. 
He ain’t all that, the main selling point is the cultural modernization that he represents, he’s an urban, black Spider-man and that’s mainly why people latch onto him.
Tumblr media
Not that he’s in anyway compelling or interesting in a unique sense, cause he is an individual person, but the urban aesthetic mainly is what people fell in love with. And that’s 100% fine-
But it’s when you start deflecting that fact and start acting like people have an issue when they don’t like him and you just can’t for the life of you understand “why why why, don’t you like him” vs other knockoffs:
Mind you, i’m probably one of the lesser yet avid Supergirl criticizers on the net, and i’m not even talking about the show, that’s too easy, comics 100%. That requires research.
Tumblr media
So there’s no double standard, Kara Zor El is a blue eyed blond haired girl next door archetype cosplaying as Superman, her entire appeal is to get women into the lore but she ended up being taken in by straight men as a fanbase, majorly. 
Why? 
Because she’s got a dynamic character arc? (She’s had some decent runs, nothing phenomenal)
An arc that at one point changed the landscape of DC? 
Her tragic downward spiral of self-destruction and wrapped up in a beautiful act of redemption & sacrifice?
NOPE that would be someone else, who i often WISH was Supergirl in the first fucking place.
But despite Clark Kent-PRIME being a better character (in concept, not the best characterization compared to Supertoken, but his arc was solid), somehow hasn’t gotten a single chance in the animated media.
Young JUSTICE didn’t choose him. They chose Kara to end off S4, because we haven’t had enough of her the past 15 years, she’s so deep like that.
And yes: The most you can say is she more trauma due to her actually knowing Krypton, having friends, her family or seeing it explode- 
But the premise of her entire origin is why she doesn’t work. Jor-El just happened to have a brother who just HAPPENED to be a scientist who just HAPPENED to have the same exact idea (not trivializing Kal’s survival at all) to save his daughter & not himself or at least get his wife and daughter away safely. 
No just copy & paste. So Superman miraculously has a cousin, the COUSIN trope. 
Kara Bore-El is a Fanfic OC made canon.
Her being an angry/edge-lord sometimes doesn’t mean she’s interesting- solely because they don’t DO anything with that anger or trauma and or they don’t commit to it. (Red Lantern Kara)
You know who’s trauma DC used to make an interesting story (excuse me) SAGA, an interesting SAGA? Superboy-PRIME. 
Tumblr media
I DIGRESS.
As you can tell, i cannot stand her despite her innate general appeal. Why? Writing, purpose, originality, DC forcing her desperately, purpose and lack thereof. 
Tumblr media
The takes of Kara that land, FOR ME, are the ones that say or do something different from the version mainline canon, and allow her to be her own thing off of Clarks coattails in some way, minor or major. 
*DC Nuclear Winter Kara Zor El, i like her.
And the fact that she’s a cutesie R63, usually. Is the only reason why she remained relevant for this long, same with Powergirl, up until people literally forgetting she existed because her contribution to the picture was big tits and a little bit of ego.
Injusitce 2 brought her back, attitude and all.....aaaand then she went back into obscurity, nobody gave a shit after 2 weeks. WHO saw that coming? 
Same with Miles, token.
Miles not bad, not a bad kid, not the worst take on Spider-man. Just overrated.
Some people need to just admit what they like about him is the aesthetic surrounding him, and stop pretending we just don’t get what it is that’s wrong with other people regarding him.
Cause i guarantee you majority of people stanning this kid has NEVER read that issue where he fought that nobody villain: Kangaroo- which is technically where his first fight as a masked hero began.
Tumblr media
Doesn’t mean you have to read every single issue to speak on the matter (Because i need to catch up on some of his stories myself), but the point is with all this support for this character, how invested are you really in this boy beyond what’s fed to you by Hollywood.
It means: Do you actually give a shit? Are you invested, or are you just talking?
It means don’t act stupid for the sake of feigning confusion when you know exactly what’s up. 
Like he should be or has to be liked and anything less is a problem or something.
Most people big him up because he’s a POC Spider-Man, period. 
If they (Marvel/Bendis) had any balls they would’ve made Miles more like Kaine, give him some anger issues & do something with it, make him a Spider-Man Foil. 
Or SOME kind of major flaw that made him having powers a serious problem- and how he uses his powers, is different enough from Peter in sheer application to where he’s not your average Spider-Man by just how he moves.
Tumblr media
Because Prowler Miles is what I’ve been needing, that’s an interesting story right there. 
No Quirk, but running shit anyway.
Tumblr media
Like Deku & Allmight having roughly the same power, initially, but Deku uses his strengths so differently by S2-S3, he literally moves & fights nothing like All Might anymore. He’s his own aesthetic.
Even Full Cowling isn’t something Allmight’s really known for or any of the Veestige, it’s a visual distinction between Deku and the rest.
And that’s one of few things i can actually praise of the franchise without a complaint.
That should’ve been Miles.
And no, some sparky fingers ain’t unique cause Jessica was doing that shit decades before Miles was a concept, but nobody talks about that tho.
The Invisible Woman shit? Sure i’ll give him that i guess. It’s pretty cool. But again, SUSAN been on it too!
Tumblr media
Moreso this alternate Miles’ arc is moreso learning the values of a hero in his own way, at his own pace, while maintaining enough moral differences from Parker to be a different situation. 
Say he’s 18 when he gets his power, slightly older than when Peter got his,14-15. 
Have the first 9-12 months be him using his powers for himself, a “fuck the world” attitude, until he does something deathly serious in a fit of rage or self defense, that he can’t undo and regrets for the rest of his career. 
Anything like that would’ve been more compelling.
You can’t tell me that doesn’t sound like a more interesting story, i didn’t say “better”, i said “interesting.”
Not just Peter Parker but recolored.
Tumblr media
Again, I was there since the beginning, 2012, day one i was buying Morales comics “Because he looked liked me”, and guess what, I was NOT impressed.
The staying power wasn’t there, the justification of his looking like me (and yes he looked just like me) WAS NOT enough to warrant long term investment because while he did look like me, Miles was NOT me. Period.
I liked that both his parents were alive, ofc they weren’t an entirely black family unit, of course. 
But i liked his pops, Jefferson being a cop. His mom was good peoples, and what happened to her was...something.
But the kid overall was boring, he didn’t speak to me, he just mirrored my melanin, big deal.
Lo and behold, just looking like a person isn’t enough to justify staying power, who knew? Just being black doesn’t mean i relate to you, who knew?
That was the day i realized, true “Representation” is NOT skin deep. It’s about character, who you are as a person. Period.
Between Kaine and Morales, it’s not even a Contest. 
Tumblr media
One has enough distinctions moral & mental to be a completely separate franchise and SHOULD'VE been in movies by now, R Rated ofc.
And the other is just a glorified What If DLC.
But ofc guess who gets a honorable mention, twice in the MCU. The Black Spider-Man ofc: 
Because he’s compelling, interesting, a long standing character in the Spider-man lore? 
No that’s KAINE, hell i’m still looking for Madam Web’s respect, on god..
Tumblr media
I’m STILL waiting for MAYDAY (rightful heir to the mask) to get her big break! The fact that Miles was able to skip the line in front of her, is insane to me.
Tumblr media
Miles is likely going get to the MCU first before BEN, Web, Mayday and KAINE combined, because he’s the black Spidey.
Again, you can like him if you want, but don’t pretend for a second why people don’t like him is some mystery.
Miles looks exactly like me, i repeat and i cannot stand him as a concept- i gravitate to Venom, Kaine, Miguel, Spider-Man NOIR, Mayday, etc.
And Miguel is technically the POC Spider-man BEFORE Morales, half Mexican, but Miles is black+latino in current day, so let’s just forget all about O’Hara until some corny Spiderverse movie makes him relevant again in the post credit scene, now everyone’s going to love Miguel because he’s going to be in the next movie.
Tumblr media
Mapping out the main reason i can’t stand normies sometimes, bandwagon mentality.
Tumblr media
And it sucks cause we got him in Ultimate Spiderman XD, Edge of Time, Shattered Dimensions, so the man had some momentum getting off the pages. So what was the hold up with getting this cat in a movie? Or a Mini series like TNAS Spider-man most people forgot?
Miguel is a legit cool dude, careerman, sly, very different aesthetic, different time, different Spider-man. He is NOT Parker, trust me. 
Miguel O’Hara should’ve been gotten his own show or movie. And on that note, that obscure underwritten Spider-man Unlimited, was a Spider-man 2099 cartoon that didn’t know or it 100% knew it was trying to be 2099
Tumblr media
But our boy Miles gets to skip the goddamn line in front of established more interesting characters that have done their time since before the Century turned, get mentions in the MCU and 2 animated movies, if that’s not AA energy i don’t know what is. 
NOW THAT’S wild to me.

Launch HN: SuperTokens (YC S20) – Securely manage session tokens Hi everyone! My name is Advait and I co-founded SuperTokens along with @rishabhpoddar ( https://supertokens.io/ ). SuperTokens helps companies securely manage their session tokens, saving developer time and preventing identity theft. We started SuperTokens 1.5 years ago when we were building a consumer app and wanted our users to be logged in for a long time in a secure way. When it came to managing user sessions, there was a lot of ambiguity. We read many forums (Reddit, Stackoverflow) and blogs, and found that developers were arguing about best practices, such as using local storage vs cookies, implementing JWTs, etc. We had to do a lot of the first principles thinking ourselves to understand the tradeoffs. Around the same time, Facebook, Docker, Gitlab, Youtube, Uber were in the news for session vulnerabilities. Stealing a user’s session allows you to access their account as if you had their username and password. Hence being able to mitigate against this is important. We’ve audited companies and found large session vulnerabilities that they were not aware of. For a YC company, we were able to pull information on users that we shouldn’t have had access to. Through our research, we built something internally and decided to write a blog post [1] explaining how our system works. While SuperTokens is not currently open source, you can see the original codebase on Github [2]. Building a good solution for sessions requires a lot of specialised knowledge and time that could otherwise be spent on building your core business logic. Detecting session theft reliably is difficult. There are multiple race conditions, edge cases and network issues that need to be thought about. In fact, one of our libraries that solves a difficult race condition has 100K downloads / week and is even used by Auth0 [3] SuperToken mitigates against all session attacks (XSS, CSRF, etc) by implementing best practices. For a full list of types of attacks with real life examples please see [4]. However, it is not possible to mitigate against all attacks (for eg: social engineering) and hence, SuperTokens is also able to detect session theft. We use rotating refresh tokens as per the official OAuth specifications in RFC 6819 [5]. Auth0 has also started offering this, but due to their setup, they cannot use httpOnly cookies to store these tokens and this goes against popular compliance recommendations. Besides security, SuperTokens also offers improved API performance and developer convenience. For clustered and distributed environments, session verification for each API takes
