        To verify the signature:

        1. Get the Grid public key provided to you during integration

        2. Decode the base64 signature from the header

        3. Create a SHA-256 hash of the request body

        4. Verify the signature using the public key and the hash


        If the signature verification succeeds, the webhook is authentic. If not, it should be rejected.
