> Having used Bloomberg for nearly 10 years, not only for the front-end but the back-end API

Maybe you know the answer to a question I’ve been asking for years: is there any way to authenticate the data you receive over the API? Bloomberg requires credentials to prove you have a subscription but I’ve long wondered about the security/integrity of the data flowing the other direction. What mechanism stops a bad actor from slightly altering or delaying Bloomberg API data as a way to manipulate the markets?
