# Verifications
Keys obtained using [SecureJoin](https://securejoin.readthedocs.io) protocol
and corresponding contacts
are considered "verified".
As an extension to `Autocrypt-Gossip` header,
chatmail clients can add `_verified=1` attribute
(underscore marks the attribute as non-critical)
to indicate that they have the gossiped key
and the corresponding contact marked as verified.
When receiving such `Autocrypt-Gossip` header
in a message signed by a verified key,
chatmail clients mark the gossiped key
as indirectly verified.
