Administrators can choose session or persistent storage for authentication tokens

A new organization setting lets administrators keep auth tokens in persistent storage, so users log in less often, or in session storage, which lowers the risk of tokens being stolen.

What changed

Genesys Cloud adds an organization setting that controls where authentication tokens are stored. Persistent storage can cut down on repeat logins, for example after a browser refresh. Session storage can reduce the risk of unauthorized access to tokens. The setting is included with all licenses.

Why it matters

Security teams often flag tokens kept in persistent browser storage, while agents and supervisors dislike being sent back to the login screen. Organizations now have to choose one side of that tradeoff deliberately, and the choice changes how often users sign in.

REVIEW

Check the current token storage setting with your security team, pick the option that matches your policy, and tell agents and supervisors if switching to session storage will make them log in more often.
