Authenticating Electronic Government Documents

October 30, 2007 · Roger Skalbeck

The U.S. Government Printing office has begun a pilot (beta) program to authenticate public and private laws from the 110th Congress (2007-2008). Here's a note about this from their site:
GPO’s Authentication initiative focuses on the primary objective of assuring users that the information made available by GPO is official and authentic and that trust relationships exist between all participants in electronic transactions. In furthering GPO’s mission to provide permanent public access to authentic U.S. Government publications, GPO is working to afford users further assurance that files are unchanged since GPO authenticated them.
