Focusing on a pattern-matching approach in archived logs is effective because it systematically looks for common structures that represent tokens or credentials. Scanning environment variables does not address archived logs. Checking firewall rules might reveal traffic patterns, but it does not target authentication data in old records. Injecting a script to collect tokens does not address locating them in stored logs.
