summary: "Google OAuth Platform now supports DPoP (Demonstrating Proof-of-Possession) to sender-constrain refresh tokens, neutralizing Infostealer malware and adversary-in-the-middle attacks. By cryptographically binding long-lived refresh tokens while maintaining short-lived access tokens as standard Bearer tokens, developers achieve robust credential security without incurring high-QPS API performance overhead. Developers integrating multi-agent or Model Context Protocol (MCP) workloads can use Google Cloud Secure Token Service (STS) to handle secure token delegation across agent chains."

## Summary

Google OAuth Platform now supports DPoP \(Demonstrating Proof\-of\-Possession\) to sender\-constrain refresh tokens, neutralizing Infostealer malware and adversary\-in\-the\-middle attacks\. By cryptographically binding long\-lived refresh tokens while maintaining short\-lived access tokens as standard Bearer tokens, developers achieve robust credential security without incurring high\-QPS API performance overhead\. Developers integrating multi\-agent or Model Context Protocol \(MCP\) workloads can use Google Cloud Secure Token Service \(STS\) to handle secure token delegation across agent chains\.
