Abstract
An approach is provided for providing secure signing and utilization of distributed computations. A distributed computation authentication platform causes, at least in part, a signing of one or more computation closures of at least one functional flow. The distributed computation authentication platform also processes and/or facilitates a processing of the one or more signed computation closures to cause, at least in part, a transfer of the one or more signed computation closures among one or more levels, one or more nodes, or a combination thereof, wherein an execution of the one or more signed computation closures at the one or more levels, the one or more nodes, or a combination thereof is based, at least in part, on an authentication of the signed one or more computation closure.
