• A peripheral device used to gain access to an electronically restricted resource. The token is used in addition to or in place of a password, and acts like an electronic key, as with a wireless keycard opening a locked door. Some tokens may store cryptographic keys that may be used to generate a digital signature, or biometric data, such as fingerprint details. ← Wikipedia
