Digital signatures allow recipients to verify that data is authentic — that it was created by a specific author and has not been tampered with since it was signed. Raytio uses two separate digital signing systems, each serving a different purpose.
The DSM includes several supporting mechanisms that ensure data integrity, device verification, and privacy-preserving references throughout the sharing workflow.
A public profile is the outward-facing representation of a user's identity and trust credentials. It aggregates several types of information into a single record that can be viewed by potential sharing partners before establishing a formal relationship.
Schema badges are declarative trust indicators that use the DSM's scoring rule engine to automatically award badges when certain conditions are met. Badges provide visual, verifiable proof that a user or entity has demonstrated a particular capability or credential.
