<p>
When securing data in a document, it is important to clearly delineate the data
being protected, called the <dfn class="export">default graph</dfn>, from the
data associated with a securing mechanism, called a
<dfn class="export">proof graph</dfn>. Creating this separation enables the
processing algorithms to be able to deterministically protect and verify a
secured document.

one containing the data associated with a securing mechanism, which is called

<p>
For an unsecured document, the information contained in the document before a
[=data integrity proof=] is added to the document is called the [=default
graph=]. A single document can contain multiple proof graphs. To ensure that
information from different [=data integrity proofs=] are not accidentally
co-mingled, the concept of a [=proof graph=] is used to encapsulate each [=data
integrity proof=]. Each value associated with the `proof` property of the
[=data integrity proof=] is added to the document is expressed in one or more
graphs. To ensure that information from different [=data integrity proofs=] are not
accidentally co-mingled, the concept of a [=proof graph=] is used to encapsulate
each [=data integrity proof=]. Each value associated with the `proof` property of the
document is a separate graph, which is sometimes referred to as a
<dfn class="export">named graph</dfn>, of type
<dfn class="export">ProofGraph</dfn>, which contains a single [=data integrity
