 The driver card data contain two certificates, which validity is checked upon each download.

 The check is performed by computing the checksums for the data files downloaded from the driver’s card (or saved onto the hard drive) and comparing them with the checksums computed by the card processor.

Repeat the download from the driver card when one of the signatures is invalid.

Download files with invalid signatures are useless even if saved onto the hard disc!!!

 

After opening and decoding the certificate, particular digital signatures of files on the card are being checked.
