In a networked computing environment, a server is equipped to assure the integrity of the service components of a service, including the direct service providing component and one or more supporting components as requested, and a client is equipped to request on behalf of an application in need of the service the integrity assurance. The client is further equipped to either request or accept the service, only upon receiving the integrity assurance. In one embodiment, the request for integrity assurance, and the subsequent conditional request or acceptance of the service is performed in real time.
