Verifiable Decapsulation

Definition

Verifiable decapsulation refers to a cryptographic process where encrypted data can be securely opened and its authenticity confirmed. This method ensures that not only is the original message revealed, but also that the process of extracting it can be independently verified as legitimate and unaltered. It often involves zero-knowledge proofs or similar cryptographic techniques to prove the correctness of the decapsulation without revealing additional sensitive information. This security feature is vital for privacy-preserving digital transactions.
