title: What is secured about JWT?
body: <p>I am using JWT in order to produce and consume tokens. After weeks of reading specs and googling, i still don't understand: what is secured about the token if I can produce it on one machine and then open it on another? Is the written token supposed to be encrypted somehow? I am using <code>System.IdentityModel.Tokens</code> and creating token using <code>JwtSecurityToken</code> and <code>JwtSecurityTokenHandler</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone please point me to a focused documentation on subject that mainly explains the security aspect of it please?</p>
