  • Why would the client want to verify the token? Commented Jan 23, 2020 at 14:29
  • Its an HR application, where users will send potentially confidencial information from the client (project related information, or even personal) isnt it best practice to do so? verifying the token would allow to know if a token was tampered with would know not send information back to the server? No? Commented Jan 23, 2020 at 14:34
