ABSTRACT:
The restriction of particular resources includes providing a digital signature for unauthorized resources based on a structure-related parameter of the resource. Thus, attempts at circumventing recognition of such resource will likely result in altering the overall functionality of the resource. Further, such digital signatures are encoded in a critical file required for loading of a resource, thus ensuring that the identity of the resource is considered before execution thereof. Enforcement of the resource restriction includes generating a verification signature for a resource that requests loading. The verification signature is compared to the signature coded into the critical file, and a positive match results in the resource being blocked from loading.
