[jira] [Created] (GOSSIP-47) Sign and/or encrypt gossip data

Edward Capriolo created GOSSIP-47:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Sign and/or encrypt gossip data
                 Key: GOSSIP-47
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GOSSIP-47
             Project: Gossip
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Edward Capriolo


For gossip we rely on peers to be middle mans of data. If we can have the node that added the data sign it and or encrypted we could use that key to verify that the data was created by the original party, not a middle man.
