If you have received a file that external to the DekkoSecure platform and the sender claims that it originated from the system, the validator can verify this.
After a document is uploaded and approved in Dekko, a unique identity signature, known as a 'hash,' is securely stored. This hash cannot be used to access the document, as it does not represent the document's content; it consists solely of a series of numbers and letters (for example, 874n3b52063cd84897a65d1633f5m74f5)
When you upload a document with a matching hash, it indicates the presence or past existence of a document with similar content in the system. Positive matches will provide relevant details about the file, including its owner and, if applicable, any users who have signed it. You don't need to specify a hash; the checker automatically handles this for you.
If a document yields a negative result upon upload, it means that it has never been present in the Dekko platform or, if it was, it has been altered after being removed (downloaded). DekkoSecure cannot and does not access the file during the validation process.
The Document Validator is specific to each global DekkoSecure platform instance:
DekkoSecure-AU / Australia:
DekkoSecure-CA / Canada:
DekkoSecure-US / United States:
