Source sentences:
text: Digital signatures make it difficult for the signer to deny having signed something -- assuming their private key has not been compromised -- as the digital signature is unique to both the document and the signer and it binds them together.
text: The signature of this hash is computed with the signer’s private key using a signature algorithm (e.g. RSA or DSA).
text: Digital signatures can also provide non-repudiation, meaning that the signer cannot successfully claim they did not sign a message, while also claiming their private key remains secret.
text: Digital signatures can also provide acknowledgement, meaning that the signer cannot successfully claim they did not sign a message, while also claiming their private key remains secret.
text: The process of digital signing requires that the signature generated by both the fixed message and private key can then be authenticated by its accompanied public key.
text: If the two hashes don't match, the data has either been tampered with in some way -- a compromise to its integrity -- or the signature was created with a private key that doesn't correspond to the public key presented by the signer --an issue with authentication.
text: The signing algorithm produces a signature based on the message and the private key.
