attestation protocols

Attestation protocols are methods used to verify the identity or integrity of a person or system. They ensure that the information or actions presented are genuine and trustworthy. For example, when accessing a secure service, an attestation protocol checks that your device is secure and running the right software. This process helps prevent fraud and unauthorized access by confirming that you are who you say you are and that your device is safe to use. In essence, these protocols build trust between users and systems by providing proof of authenticity.
