1. A method for processing a hypertext transfer protocol HTTP request, the method comprising the steps of:

  • receiving an original HTTP request for accessing an instance of an application at a first URL (Universal Resource Locator) including a domain name part;

    changing the first URL to a second URL by modifying the domain name part of the first URL to a new domain name different from the domain name part of the first URL by adding one or more randomly generated characters followed by a period to a header of the first URL when the domain name part of the first URL is identical to a domain name of the application, so as to generate a new HTTP request for accessing the instance of the application at a second URL including the new domain name part; and

    sending the new HTTP request to a server of the application so as to access the instance of the application,wherein the first URL and the second URL correspond to a same IP address because the second URL acts as a wildcard domain for the first URL.
