Digital
API token rotation
Formal definition
API token rotation is an operating term in digital focused on reducing cyber and operational risk through preventative controls and tested recovery capability.
What this actually means for you
Digital and data leads should treat API token rotation as an operating standard: apply baseline security controls and rehearse restoration steps against defined recovery targets, then review it before launches, integrations, and platform changes.
Example: In a live quarterly cycle, API token rotation is applied like this: access reviews remove stale accounts quarterly and backup restores are tested against RTO and RPO targets. The team then records the decision trail in team templates, reporting packs, and operating checklists.
