Abstract

A method and system for intercepting communications between a transport client and a transport provider is provided. An interceptor system registers to intercept calls made by the transport client to functions of the transport provider. The interceptor system also replaces callbacks of the transport client so that calls from the transport provider intended for the transport client can be intercepted. When the interceptor system intercepts the call, it provides an indication of the call to a processing component. The processing component may analyze the call and determine whether the call should be allowed or denied. The interceptor system then proceeds to process the call in accordance with the indication of the processing component.
