Hi. When I make calls to apis within the _identity_ section, I need to send the oryAccessToken along. I'd like to know if this key is protected in production, because in the development environment you can see this key in the browser's inspect mode.

Hello <@U05SGH4JUAK>
This key is not “protected” per se, so you should never expose it to a third party. Think of it like your Cloudflare/etc. API key.

This should not happen, what are you doing at the moment? If you are calling the Admin API it needs to happen server-side.
