U.S. Government Printing Office: Authentication

Overview Ensuring customers that the electronic information made available through GPO is official and authentic is of paramount importance for our future. There is a need for information that is reliable because it is from a trusted source, and a need to ensure the protection of data against unauthorized modification or substitution of information. The steps that have been taken to stand-up a PKI and the associated digital signature process used in accordance with the policies and infrastructure of this system will enable GPO to assure customers that electronic files are unchanged since being authenticated by GPO.
