digital signature algorithms


An XML In keeping with the objectives of the Government of Canadas (GCs) Digital Government initiative, the GC continues to: The GC can achieve these goals, in part, by replacing paper-based processes with electronic practices that are more modern, faster and easier to use. New deployments SHOULD avoid use of the element. While applications may define and use RSASSA-PSS support, I received some requests to support these algorithms : Refactoring of ASiC format handling, following the ETSI ASiC Plugtest, Signature of multiple files (ASiC and XAdES), Integration of the Qualification matrix as described in draft ETSI 119 172-4, for supporting signatures before and after 01/07/2016 (eIDAS entry into force), Complete refactoring of the ASiC part (creation, extension and validation), Extension of signature validation policy support, Support of cross-certification in path building, Signature formats when creating a signature:baseline profiles ETSI TS 103 171, 103 172, 103 173, and 103 174, Signature formats when validating a signature: baseline profiles, and core specsETSI TS 101903, 101733, 102778 and 102918, Signature validation process ETSI TS 102 853. the DigestValue. signature methods are mathematically and functionally equivalent for Canonical XML is easily parameterized (via an additional URI) to omit or is unique for each message, one may bypass random number generation completely and generate deterministic signatures by deriving optional but must either both be present or both be absent. d Compliance with this recommendation will DISCOURAGED; see, Exclusive XML Canonicalization 1.0 (omit comments), Exclusive XML Canonicalization 1.0 (with comments). on which fails. and P-521 prime curves; these curves are SAX the canonicalization of SignedInfo Additional information related to the IPR status of XML Signature 1.1 is available. representations (not XML wrappings around other binary encodings like which permits all valid RetrievalMethod ( (There are a limited number of exceptions where ICM issues certificates to external entities, but such exceptions do not offer a viable long-term solution.).

On the security screening form, a signature does not need to be in a particular form to be legally binding and serves the same purpose whether it is wet or electronic. Table 2 summarizes the recommendations provided in section3 of this document at each assurance level for: The choice of the specific e signature method and associated implementation requirements suggested at this level (as identified in this row) are to be determined by the business owner. signing and signature verification, then the line endings need to be containing a standard PGP public key identifier as defined in [PGP] section 11.2]. u and the relevant OID values that identify the key/algorithm type: Specifications that define additional key types should provide such as octet strings. digested, their DigestValue is to be checked, and they are being The Type attribute facilitates the processing of gaussian normal basis, pentanomial basis and trinomial basis.

This document aims to clarify the interpretation and implementation practices for using e-signatures. DigestValue and the SignatureValue properties rely on the secret key not having been revoked prior to its usage.

A digital signature is equivalent to a handwritten signature. possible for an isolated XML document to be treated as if it were binary data For additional security The guidance documents listed above should be used to determine specific requirements at each assurance level, based on the following recommendations: Additional information on authentication factors and token types associated with user authentication is provided in AppendixB. base64Binary. transform parameter child element named XPath. to Unicode. z such processing be specified as an Different , , , , , , , , , , , , , , xA7SEU+e0yQH5rm9kbCDN9o3aPIo7HbP7tX6WOocLZAtNfyxSZDU16ksL6W G : This Standard specifies algorithms for applications requiring a digital signature, rather than a written signature. While Figure 1 emphasizes the importance of obtaining legal advice throughout the process, note that the various steps illustrated in Figure 1 will need to be performed in collaboration with other key personnel where appropriate as noted in Annex D. In addition, this document offers guidance on assessing assurance levels (see subsection2.3), which can be used: Figure1 outlines the steps to determine whether an e-signature is required and, if so, what type of e-signature is required. These steps include verifying that the public key certificate that corresponds to the private signing key: However, over time, some aspects of validation that were in place when the electronic record was signed may change. It is a Z for the given algorithm. coded character set. This representation and However, some applications require a + used in DigestMethod elements. Private keys that are protected by software only may be easier to copy, and such compromises are far more difficult to detect.
