I have a specific Silverlight application, that is fed with data by a WCF-Service. I want to make sure, that the WCF-Service is only called by that specific Silverlight App. What is the best way to accomplish that and what do I have to do? It doesn't have to be a high security solution.

Thanks in advance, Frank
