Abstract
In a distributed system, data is shared between three or more electronic devices. The first device generates and signs an object that includes the data. A second device receives the signed object and determines whether the signed object is valid. If valid, the second device will generate a validated signed object and send it to a third device. The third device will validate the object by determining whether the object includes valid signatures of both the first and second devices.
