US Patent 10320569 Systems and methods for authenticating a digitally signed assertion using verified evaluators

A method of authenticating a digitally signed assertion using verified evaluators includes receiving, by a first processor coupled to a memory at least a first digitally signed assertion, identifying, by the first processor, at least a cryptographic evaluator communicatively coupled to the first processor, assigning, by the first processor, at least a confidence level to the at least a cryptographic evaluator; providing, by the first processor, the at least a first digitally signed assertion to the at least a cryptographic evaluator, receiving, by the first processor and from the at least a cryptographic evaluator, at least an appraisal of the at least a first digitally signed assertion, and authenticating, by the first processor, the at least a first digitally signed assertion as a function of the at least an appraisal and the at least a confidence level.
