Abstract: A system for validating an authorization request to facilitate controlling access to content or computer commands, in which the access is requested by multiple entities operated on discrete computing environments. The techniques make use of a system including a switchboard and a rule engine that collect parameter sets required for validation from the entities and dynamically generate a lock and key combination based on the collected parameter sets. The key of the lock and key combination allows the system to validate each entity independently regardless of the required parameters specified in the lock and key combination.
