# Verification Engine

The Verification Engine plays a critical role in ensuring the authenticity and validity of SBIs. It allows anyone to verify the integrity of an inscription's data and the legitimacy of the issuing organization. The verification engine cryptographically validates the digital signatures embedded within SBIs using the issuers' public keys. This process ensures that the data hasn't been tampered with and confirms the issuer's identity.

Key Features:

* Ensures the authenticity and validity of SBIs
* Cryptographic validation of digital signatures
* Confirms issuer identity and data integrity

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ordict.gitbook.io/whitepaper/ordict-product-suite/verification-engine.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
