BSR directories are validated based on the contents in the directory.
Each BSR directory contains a SHA256SUMS and SHA256SUMS.sign file that can be used to cryptographically verify the BSR directory's contents.
The SHA256SUMS file contains rows of file names paired with a checksum for the file contents.
The SHA256SUMS.sign is a copy of the SHA256SUMS file, signed with the BSR's private key.

## Validate the integrity of session recordings
BSR directories are validated based on the contents in the directory.
Boundary cryptographically verifies each individual Boundary Session Recording (BSR) file. The keys used for verifying all
Boundary Session Recording files are written to storage and wrapped by the KMS you configured. Each session recording
has its own individual key. Boundary generates the following keys when a session recording is authorized:
- The BSR key is a plaintext AES-GCM key. It is not uploaded to the external object store.
- The private and public key pair is a ed25519 key pair. The key pair is not uploaded to the external object store.
The following files are stored in the BSR file structure to ensure the integrity of a session recording:
- `bsrKey.pub` is the public ed25519 key.
- `wrappedBsrKey` is the BSR key wrapped by the external KMS AES-GCM key that you configure.
- `wrappedPrivKey` is the private ed25519 key wrapped by the external KMS AES-GCM key that you configure.
- `pubKeySelfSignature.sign` is a self-signature of the plaintext public ed25519 key created with its private key.
- `pubKeyBsrSignature.sign` is a signature of the plaintext public ed25519 key created with the BSR key.
- `SHA256SUM.sig` is a signature of the plaintext `SHA256SUM` file created with the private key.
Encrypting the BSR key with an external KMS means that Boundary is not responsible for the longevity of the keys.
The Boundary admin can always use that external KMS to unwrap the `wrappedBsrKey` and `wrappedPrivKey`.
A BSRs key is encrypted using the `go-kms-wrapping` package, and therefore the encrypted BlobInfo includes the metadata required to identify the key-version used during encryption.
So if the wrapper is reinitialized properly, you can unwrap the keys even if the key has been rotated.
Each BSR directory contains a SHA256SUM and SHA256SUM.sig file that you can use to cryptographically verify the BSR directory's contents.
The SHA256SUM file contains rows of file names paired with a checksum for the file contents.
The SHA256SUM.sig is a copy of the SHA256SUM file, signed with the BSR's private key.
Refer to the following example of a SHA256SUM file:

```
Follow these steps to validate a session recording:
1. Unwrap `wrappedBsrKey` using the external KMS you configured to retrieve the BSR key.
2. Unwrap `wrappedPrivKey` using the external KMS you configured to retrieve the private key.
3. Use the BSR key or the private key to verify the `bsrKey.pub` key using `go-kms-wrapping` HmacSha256(...)
4. When the key is verified, use the `bsrKey.pub` key to verify the BSR SHA256SUM file using `go-kms-wrapping` ed25519.Sign(...)
## Validate the data integrity in the external object store
When a Boundary worker uploads a BSR file to AWS S3 through the Boundary AWS plugin, the plugin calculates the SHA256 checksum of the
contents of the BSR file and attaches this information to the object that is uploaded to S3. The SHA256 checksum value attached to the
S3 object is returned to the Boundary worker. The Boundary worker calculates the SHA256 checksum value of the BSR file's content from
local disk and compares it to the plugin value. This process ensures that no tampering of BSR files occurs between the worker, plugin, and S3.
The SHA256 checksum value generated by the plugin is not a part of the BSR file structure and should not be confused with how Boundary
cryptographically verifies the BSR directory's contents.
