Hi Harsh,
Thanks for the nice improvement. reducing the access-token lifetime is a sensible security hardening step, and the change itself is clean and easy to follow.
A couple of small things to tidy up before/around merge:
- The comment in authService.js still says “15 minutes” while the value is now 10m, just update the comment for clarity.
- This PR also includes some Vulnerability_Tool files and .docx artifacts. They look unrelated to the token-expiry change, so suggest removing them from this PR (or handling them separately) to keep scope clean.
Overall direction looks good. Thanks for tightening the session window.
Thanks!

By reducing the token expiry time, active sessions are limited to shorter lifespans. This minimizes the window of opportunity for attackers to exploit stolen or intercepted tokens, thereby mitigating the risk of session hijacking and strengthening overall security.
