Securing Distributed Application Information Delivery
First Claim
1. One or more processor-accessible media including processor-executable instructions, the processor-executable instructions comprising a data structure for a secure application instruction protocol, the data structure including:
- a first application-level request comprising application-specific instructions from a requestor and a requestor signature over the application-specific instructions from the requestor; and
a second application-level request comprising application-specific instructions from an intermediary and an intermediary signature over at least the application-specific instructions from the intermediary.

Abstract
In an example implementation, a data structure comports with a secure application instruction protocol. The data structure includes a first application-level request and a second application-level request. The first application-level request has application-specific instructions from a requestor and a requestor signature over the application-specific instructions from the requestor. The second application-level request has application-specific instructions from an intermediary and an intermediary signature over at least the application-specific instructions from the intermediary.

9. A device including an application that implements a secure application instruction protocol, the application comprising:
-
a message augmenter to encapsulate an incoming application-level request and to add application-specific instructions for a subsequent entity; and a message signer to digitally sign at least the application-specific instructions for the subsequent entity and to add an outgoing intermediary signature. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method comprising:
-
receiving an incoming message having a request that is digitally-signed by a requestor at an application-level; augmenting the request by adding application-specific instructions for a subsequent entity; digitally-signing the application-specific instructions to create an outgoing message that includes the request, the application-specific instructions, and a digital signature over the application-specific instructions; and transmitting the outgoing message towards the subsequent entity. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
