Digital Signature
Definition
Digital Signature is a type of electronic signature that provides authentication of a specific document or data in digital environments.
Digital signature is a technology used to ensure security in digital communications and authenticate documents. It functions the same as a traditional signature, but is used in electronic environments. Digital signatures are used to verify the identity of the person who created the document and the integrity of the document. A digital signature is a cryptographic process created using a private key. This signature is used to verify that the contents of the document have not been altered and that the person signing the document is actually the relevant person. Digital signatures are widely used to provide security in online transactions and ensure the legal validity of electronic documents.
