Morphology
unforgeable = forgeable (transparent) = un + forge + able
The adjective 'forgeable' (capable of being forged) is straightforward, and 'un-' simply negates it, so the meaning is directly compositional.
Etymology
The word unforgeable breaks into un- ('not') and forge ('to make or fake'), as seen in forgery. So something unforgeable is 'not able to be faked or copied', which is why we use it for secure passports and digital signatures.
