A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What are you trying to do? If this is SAML or some sort of signed auth, yeah it's kinda really important to verify that. If it's data that you're ingesting, yeah you probably want to know who it came from. Otherwise anybody can send you junk data and overwrite your customer data (or whatever you're importing). If it's some binary blob you're running, yeah you should probably verify that signature is signed by somebody you trust.
