about token based authentication security

I am reading the authenticated services with token. I understand that a user have to get a token to using arcgis services. Example: https://domain.com/arcgis/rest/services/myMap/MapServer is my service. My server administrator give me a token like this. Token = AJSJK876548sjjs7

And I used this service in my javascript api like this https://domain.com/arcgis/rest/services/myMap/MapServer?token=AJSJK876548sjjs7

A user can view my application source from browser and can get my token. And He/She can access my service. Is this a security problem?
