ABSTRACT:
A system and method for providing a secure network service to an information handling system compares the detected network address of a service network location that calls a service on the information handling system with a list of authorized network addresses and denies access to confidential information of the information handling system if the detected network address is not authorized to obtain confidential information from the service. For instance, a service security module loaded on the information handling system detects the URL or domain of a service network location and ensures that the URL or domain is on an authorized list of addresses before service functions are allowed to access confidential information associated with the information handling system.
