Patent attributes
A computing system for generating tamper-proof electronic messages is disclosed herein. A service provider application receives an electronic message from a client application. The electronic message comprises an authorization provider (AuP) token that includes a public key of a local signing authority (LSA) and a signed payload that has been signed by the LSA using a private key of the LSA that forms a cryptographic key pair with the public key, the signed payload comprising an indication of a programmatic task to be executed by the service provider application. Responsive to validating the AuP token in the electronic message, the service provider application extracts the public key from the electronic message. Responsive to validating the signed payload based upon the extracted public key of the LSA, the service provider application executes the programmatic task.
