Combination in lis_result_sourcedid in Quiz submission

I wanted to confirm that what details combine to create lis_result_sourcedid?

According to my findings if we have

"lis_result_sourcedid":"AAAAA-BBBBB-CCCCCC-DDDDDD-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" which is formed by
tool_id : AAAAA
custom_canvas_course_id : BBBBB
custom_canvas_assignment_id : CCCCCC
custom_canvas_user_id : DDDDDD
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

What is this XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX? How does canvas calculate it?

Can someone please confirm my findings and fill me in with the missing piece?
Thanks

I'd look here in the Canvas source code: https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/blob/9a9fdf3a6594c6c9a083c80554e2f048ad5376d4/app/models/lti/lti_outbound_adapter.rb#L130-L134

It looks to me like that last component is the "pre-determined shared secret that the tool signs requests with".

However, I would be very careful about making any assumptions about that value that are not documented in the API docs.
