Abstract: A network device generates secure item records for items evaluated at an event. A network device receives, at a provider network, event registration information including an event location and receiving item information for an item (e.g., a car, boat, etc.) to be evaluated at the event. The systems and methods assign an enrollment code for the item and provide the enrollment code to an event participant as part of a pre-registration procedure. The network device receives an item registration record, for the item, with a first digital signature; receives an item judging record, for the item, with a second digital signature; and receives an item judging validation, for the item, with a third digital signature. The network device generates a hash value from the first, second, and third digital signatures and stores the item registration record, the item judging record, the item judging validation, and the hash value.
