Abstract
Secure extensibility access to application program interfaces (APIs) is described. Techniques are described in which trust indicia are used determine relative trustworthiness of an extensibility module attempting to access of APIs of an application module. Access to APIs of the application module is managed based upon trustworthiness of the extensibility module.
