There is a Discourse thread (https://octave.discourse.group/t/where-do-i-find-the-public-key-to-check-the-integrity-of-the-octave-installer/4577/5?replies_to_post_number=2) about finding the public keys necessary to verify the integrity of downloads.

This seems like good public information to put on the Octave website.  I would propose putting it on the Downloads page at https://www.octave.org/download.

I don't have much experience with the Octave web site or I would make the change myself.
