In each request, the client includes a nonce to prevent replay attacks. The client
signs the full url with the request body concatenated if there is one. The signature

The server verifies that the signature is valid and that it matches the public key.
The server verifies that the signature is valid and that it matches the identity (the public key).
It then computes the SIN from the public key, and sees whether that SIN has access
to the requested resource. The nonce is checked to make sure it is higher than
the previously used nonce.
