Abstract

Some embodiments implement end-to-end certificate pinning for content intake from various content providers and for content distribution to various end users. To ensure secure retrieval of content provider content, the content distributor pins the content provider to one or more certificate authorities. Accordingly, the content distributor only retrieves content from a sender identified as the content provider when the sender identity is verified with a certificate issued by a certificate authority pinned to the content provider. To ensure secure delivery of content from the content distributor to an end user, the content distributor modifies the pinset of the user browser to pin the content distributor to one or more certificate authorities. Thereafter, the user browser only accepts content from a sender identified as the content distributor when the sender identity is verified with a certificate issued by a certificate authority pinned to the content distributor in the browser pinset.
