Introduction
A digital signature uniquely identifies the originator of digitally signed data and also ensures the integrity of the signed data against tampering or corruption. So digital signatures are commonly used to identify electronic entities for online transactions, just like handwritten signatures or physical thumbprints are commonly used to identify people for legal proceedings or transactions.
