Keys and verification
Definition
Key pinning
Keeping your own copy of a public key and verifying against that copy.
Definition
Storing a public key, or its identifier and value, in your own records and trusting that stored copy rather than fetching the key each time.
In Trustvice
Fetch the key set once, store each key's kid and x in your repository or records, and verify against that copy. Then verification does not depend on the network path, or on Trustvice's servers, at the time you check.
What it is not
Not TLS certificate pinning. Here the pinned values are the public keys that sign receipts.
