Verification Guide
This technical manual is designed to assist administrators in identifying official network nodes and distinguishing them from non-standard replicas or unauthorized mirrors.
Identifying Official Nodes
Official C-Systems Global infrastructure nodes are characterized by several technical markers. Any environment lacking these markers should be treated as non-compliant.
-
Certificate Authority (CA) Verification:
Official nodes only use SSL certificates issued by recognized high-assurance CAs. Check the "Organization" field in the certificate details for "C-Systems Global Infrastructure".
-
Header Inspection:
All HTTP responses from authorized nodes include the
X-CSG-Identity-Tokenheader, which can be verified against the central repository. -
DNS Path Validation:
Verify that the node resolves to an IP address within the authorized C-Systems Global CIDR blocks.
Distinguishing Non-Standard Replicas
Non-standard replicas often exhibit one or more of the following technical discrepancies:
Invalid Metadata
Missing or incorrect technical metadata in the resource headers or asset descriptors.
Unauthorized Mirrors
Environments hosted on non-approved infrastructure or utilizing unauthorized CDN configurations.
Need Technical Clarification?
If you encounter a node that does not meet these verification standards, please report it immediately to the technical node for infrastructure integrity.
