Hookdeck Source Verification

What's this blog post about?

Hookdeck has released Source Verification, a feature designed to simplify integration with various providers. It allows users to perform webhook URL challenges like Twitter CRC and validate webhook authenticity by verifying the signature or other security strategies. Currently, Twitter, Stripe, Shopify, Postmark, and GitHub are supported out of the box, but users can create additional integrations using HMAC, Basic Auth, or API Key templates. Source Verification is optional, and all secrets provided to Hookdeck are AES encrypted. The feature aims to expand functionality for specific commonly used providers while maintaining a provider-agnostic approach.
