The FDC3 App Directory provides trusted identity for financial desktop apps. This identity can be used to prevent spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks when apps communicate with one another and exchange data. The App Directory also enables service discovery. Apps are registered with a declaration of the intents and context data that can be used when interoperating.
