Digital Signature
A Digital Signature is a cryptographic proof used to demonstrate origin integrity and non-tampering of data or messages.
Definition
A Digital Signature is a cryptographic mechanism that allows a system or user to prove that a message, document, token, or assertion was produced by a trusted source and has not been altered. In IAM and identity federation, signatures are central to trust because they protect identity statements and secure exchanges between systems.
