A method includes obtaining, by a vehicle computing system onboard an autonomous vehicle, a message including a cryptographic signature and contextual information, a request, or a command. The method includes determining an originating sender associated with the message based on the cryptographic signature and determining a message privilege for the message based on the originating sender. The originating sender is a process that generated the message. The method includes determining a response for the contextual information, the request, or the command based on the message privilege. The response is indicative of an acceptance or rejection of contextual information, an assignment of computing resources to a request, or an acceptance or rejection of a command. The method includes performing a vehicle action based on the response.
