Digital Signature
A digital signature is a cryptographic method that verifies the authenticity and integrity of a digital message or document, acting as the digital equivalent of a handwritten signature or stamped seal. A digital signature is created using a private key (known only to the signer) and a public key (available to anyone). The signer uses their private key to encrypt a hash (a unique “fingerprint”) of the document’s content, creating the digital signature. Anyone can verify the signature by using the signer’s public key to decrypt the hash and compare it to a new hash of the document. It is used to electronically signing PDF documents, electronically signing contracts and agreements, verifying software integrity, validating online transactions.
