Digital Signature
A Digital Signature is a mathematical technique used to validate the authenticity and integrity of a digital document, message or software. It’s the digital equivalent of a handwritten signature or stamped seal, but it offers far more inherent security. A digital signature is intended to solve the problem of tampering and impersonation in digital communications.
Overview
A Digital Signature is an electronic, encrypted stamp of authentication on digital information such as messages.
This signature ensures that the information originated from the signer and was not altered, which proves the identity of the organization that created the digital signature.
The use of digital signatures is important because they can ensure end-to-end message integrity, and can also provide authentication information about the originator of a message.
