Request signing (CC1-HMAC)

Request signing is the HMAC (CC1) signature Credicorp uses to authenticate inter-site control hops — for example a marketing site submitting a consent or enquiry over a signed request.

Definition

Some public mutations are reached over a CC1-HMAC-signed hop: the calling site signs the request with a per-host shared secret so the hub can attribute it, even though the public endpoint itself needs no user auth. It is the same HMAC family used to verify webhooks, applied in the outbound direction.

In plain terms

A signature on inter-site requests that proves which trusted site sent them.

Why it matters here

You mostly encounter it if you host a Credicorp-integrated marketing site; the enquiries and consent hops use it.
