Secure Relay Validation

Mechanism

Secure relay validation involves cryptographically verifying the integrity and authenticity of data transmitted through relay networks. This ensures that relayed messages or transactions have not been tampered with and originate from legitimate sources. Techniques often include digital signatures, message authentication codes (MACs), and cryptographic proofs of correct relay operation. The validation process confirms that the relay performed its function as expected. It is critical for maintaining trust in the relay infrastructure.
