Verifying cryptographically signed release files confirms their authenticity. This check ensures that the files align with the trusted source and have not been modified. TLS encryption secures data during transfer but does not prove the files themselves were not altered. Extended attributes do not validate source authenticity. Logging helps identify file activity but does not link files to a known trusted origin.
