Abstract
A computer-implemented method for controlling access to a source code repository residing on a server system coupled to a communications network includes: receiving, by a computing device coupled to the network, an instruction to execute a client executable for accessing the source code repository, wherein the client executable includes a first hash based on the client executable; determining a validity of the first hash; computing a second hash based on the client executable; providing the first hash and the second hash to the server system; determining a validation result for the client executable, wherein the validation result is based on the first hash and the second hash matching a corresponding pair of hashes of a plurality of valid hashes stored in a database; in response to the validation result indicating that the client executable is valid, accessing the source code repository.
