-Verifies the signed data by using the `cert` which is a string containing

-signature for the data, in the `signature_format` which can be `'binary'`, `'hex'` or `'base64'`.
+Verifies the signed data by using the `object` and `signature`. `object` is  a
+string containing a PEM encoded object, which can be one of RSA public key,
+DSA public key, or X.509 certificate. `signature` is the previously calculated
+signature for the data, in the `signature_format` which can be `'binary'`,

 Returns true or false depending on the validity of the signature for the data and public key.
