Add Security Token

You can use the Security Token feature to improve the security of your URLs by masking. Stealth Redirection or URL Hiding will ensure that your visitors see the original domain name and not the destination URL.

To create a security token for your domain, follow the steps below.

Step 1: Go to Domains
Click on the CDN feature under Tools, followed by clicking on Manage Domains. This should show you the list of domains you have added under your CDN service.

Step 2: Select a Domain
Click on the Manage button under Action for the domain to which you want to add a security token. This should give you a list of Security related modules/features.

Step 3: Security Token
Under the Security feature, click on Security Token to add the feature.

Adding Security Token

Step 1: Create Security Token
Click Add button on the right-hand top corner of your screen to create a security Token for your domain.

Step 2: Select Domain
From the dropdown menu, select a domain to which you want to add the Security Token.

Step 3: Select Location
Using the search tab from the dropdown menu, you can select a location to include the hash right after the URL prefix. For example, if you select location '/abc' and the domain selected (from previous tab) is 'www.testdomain.com', then the security token will be attached to and every sub-folder under '/abc'

Step 4: Enter Secret Key
Enter a minimum of 6 digit Key to generate a Base64‑encoded binary‑format MD5 hash.

Step 5: Add IP Address (Optional step)
You can add the client/end user's IP address to make the hash link exclusive only to the use. However, this step is optional.

Step 6: Expiry Time
You can specify an expiration date after which the URL will no longer work, even if the hash is correct. The format for time is yyyy-mm-dd hrs:min:sec

Step 7: Save
Click Add to save the elements.

Note: It takes a few minutes to process the request.
