Generate a Nonce

Learn to generate nonce on the verifier

Note: A nonce is a random, one-time-use value generated by the verifier and sent to the attester.

• It ensures the attestation report is fresh and not a replay of an old, potentially compromised report.

• It binds the attestation to a specific request, preventing replay attacks.

Create the Nonce

Generate a nonce for the session. For more information see, the attestation nonce CLI.
