Word origin

The term 'revalidation' is derived from the prefix 're-', meaning 'again', and 'validation', which comes from the Latin 'validare', meaning 'to make valid or confirm'. The concept of validation has been prominent in various professions, particularly in the realms of law, medicine, and data management. As standards evolve and new information becomes available, the need for revalidation emerged to ensure that existing validations remain credible and applicable. This need for periodic reassessment became increasingly clear, leading to structured processes for revalidation, especially in regulated industries. Over time, revalidation has been adopted widely to reinforce the credibility of various professions and to protect public safety.
