Abstract

A structured document is verified for changes that are made during and after deployment of an application. The structured document includes first fields that are designated as mutable, and second fields that are designated as immutable. An attempted change is detected to the structured document during or after deployment of the application. Upon detecting the attempted change, a digital signature is generated of the second fields of the structured document. A determination is made whether the generated digital signature of the second fields matches a reference digital signature of the second fields. Upon determining that the generated digital signature matches the reference digital signature, the change to the structured document is permitted. Upon determining that the generated digital signature does not match the reference digital signature, the change is blocked to the structured document.
