ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods consistent with the present invention authenticate resource requests in a computer system having a resource controller and a bus. Such systems and methods may monitor the bus for resource requests made to the resource controller, intercept at least one resource request made to the resource controller, determine if the intercepted resource request is authentic, and allow the intercepted resource request to be fulfilled by the resource controller if the resource request is authentic, and otherwise, allow the request to time out.
