1. A method for authenticating a distributed computing resource of a requesting entity to access a resource or a service of a resource server, the method comprising:
receiving, by the resource server, a token including one or more entitlements for the requesting entity from an access management server;
decrypting, by the resource server, a digital signature appended to the token to obtain a previously-generated hash value of the token;
generating, by the resource server, a new hash value of the token;
determining, by the resource server, whether the previously-generated hash value of the token matches the new hash value of the token; and
locally caching, by the resource server, the token and the one or more entitlements, based on determining that the previously-generated hash value of the token matches the new hash value of the token.
