Morphology

unfalsified = falsified (transparent) = un + falsify + ed

A straightforward negation using the productive prefix 'un-' attached to the past-participle adjective 'falsified' (not forged).

Etymology

Unfalsified comes from un- meaning 'not' and falsify (from false) meaning 'to make false' or 'to forge'. So an unfalsified document has not been changed or forged and is 'genuine'.
