There's a few ways you can do this, however because I am on my phone I can't give you a detailed example.

What I recommend for you to look into is sending the AJAX request as JSON data to your PHP file, you can then validate the JSON data within the PHP file and return a response to the front end accordingly.

Within the PHP file you can return any value as a response, meaning that if you echo "success" or "true", you can see whether the data is what you are looking to receive from the user.

I would highly recommend doing as much validation possible in the back end. It is a good habit to get in to as anything can be manipulated on the front end of a website.
