Hi,

If you're really worried about this, one slight modification is to  
generate a signature for your page (with some expiration time built  
in) and use that to make the call. Your controller can check whether  
the call is indeed coming from your page API.

It is trivial to disassemble this logic, but it does provide a higher  
barrier to entry. It is also useful to preventing XSS attacks.

regards
