US Patent 10558796 Enforcing trusted application settings for shared code libraries

Access to a shared library API is restricted for a customer application by a security system. A profile for each of a plurality of trusted applications is generated and stored in a security database. When a customer application attempts to access the shared library API, the customer application is verified by extracting a customer application profile for the customer application, comparing the customer application profile with each stored trusted application profile, and verifying that the customer application can access the shared library API based on the comparison. Based on the verification, the customer application may be allowed to or access to the shared library API or may be prevented from accessing the shared library API.
