Abstract
Methods and systems for securing endpoint devices are disclosed. To secure the endpoint devices, a flexible system for verifying authority may be used. The flexible system may allow data processing system in resource constrained environment to invoke the functionalities of other data processing systems. The flexible system may reduce the resources expended for invoking functionalities of other data processing systems by not requiring that requests for the invocation of the functionalities include sufficient verification for the other data processing systems to verify that the requestors have sufficient authority to invoke the functionalities of the other data processing systems.
