[https://docs.sigstore.dev/](https://docs.sigstore.dev/)\n\n### RAG Security Implementation Patterns\n\n#### Secure RAG Architecture\n\n**Key Security Controls:**\n\n1. **Document Source Validation:**\n```python\ndef validate_document_source(document):\n    \"\"\"Verify document comes from trusted source\"\"\"\n    if not is_trusted_source(document.source):\n        raise SecurityException(\"Untrusted document source\")\n    \n    # Verify digital signature\n    if not verify_signature(document):\n        raise SecurityException(\"Invalid document signature\")\n    \n    return document\n```\n\n2. **Access Control for Retrieval:**\n```python\ndef filtered_retrieval(query, user_context):\n    \"\"\"Retrieve only documents user has access to\"\"\"\n    documents =
