Externalizing Token Validation in IBM Sterling Order Service

Currently, IBM Sterling Order Service (OS) supports externalizing token generation; however, token validation is performed internally within OS using the issuer’s static public key.

The primary challenge is that this dynamic key rotation makes the current OS approach—which relies on a static, pre-configured public key for internal validation—impractical and incompatible with modern security standards.

To comply with our security directive and ensure secure integration with industry-standard Identity Providers (IdPs) that use key rotation, we require the ability to externalize token validation for OS. This would mirror the existing support for externalized token generation.

The ability to perform token validation by calling an external service, thereby supporting environments with dynamic or frequently rotating public keys.
