*bzzzt*  Wrong answer. Thanks for playing.


What you want:
Allow access to the server only for selected/trustworthy partners or
protocols.

What you are doing:
Allow access to the server to all those who are using it already.


That is an organizational problem, not a technical one. A sniffer never
can sign a request - a manager can. General policy for rule requests
should be: no signature, no access.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen
