Data integrity refers to the assurance that data will remain accurate, unaltered, and consistent throughout its lifecycle. In communication, data integrity is important in safeguarding against unintended alterations and malicious interventions during data transmission.

In this session, we'll explore the various ways one can ascertain the integrity of the data as well as the tradeoffs between them. Folks will learn about MDC, MAC, HMAC, The Diffie-Hellman-Merkle Protocol as well as the X.500 Signature Family. This will help the attendees make an informed decision as to what they need in their business requirements. We will then see a live demonstration explaining how to use these options in a Node/ Typescript Application.
