Abstract:
A method includes detecting an incoming request from a first application to a second application. The method further includes performing an authentication that involves sending a challenge message to a first application. The challenge message may request an account of information associated with processed transactions between the first application and the second application during a particular period preceding the incoming request, a solution to a high-cost calculation associated with a high level of resource use, or a concatenated sequence of characters located at specific positions of a shared value. The authentication further involves receiving a challenge response to the challenge message from the first application, determining a verified response based on the challenge message, and determining whether the challenge response matches the verified response. The method includes authorizing the second application to process the incoming request in response to determining that the challenge response matches the verified response.
