NS Writeup 03

This document provides instructions for an experiment on implementing a digital signature using a virtual lab. The experiment aims to demonstrate how a receiver can verify the integrity of a message in a public key setting using digital signatures. It involves hashing a message, encrypting the hash with a private key to create a signature, and allowing verification by decrypting the signature with the public key and comparing it to a fresh hash of the message. The procedure outlines the steps of entering text to hash and sign, selecting a public key to use, and observing the simulation of the digital signature process.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
To verify the working of digital signature scheme and to observe how a receiver can
verify integrity of the message in public key setting.

REQUIREMENTS: Desktop Computer/Laptop

THEORY:

Digital Signatures Scheme

A Digital Signature is an authentication mechanism that enables the creator of the


message to attack a code that acts as a signature. The signature is formed by taking
the hash of the message and encrypting the message with the creator's private key.
The signature guarantees the source and integrity of the message.

About the experiment:

In Public key setting, it becomes difficult to verify for a receiver whether message is
originated from claimed source.

In this experiment, we show how a receiver can verify integrity of the message in
public key setting.

Key Generation

Before signing a message to any entity, Alice (the signee) must generate keys and
announce the public keys to the public

 Choose a prime p, between 512 and 1024 bits in length.


 The number of bits in p must be a multiple of 64.
 Choose a 160-bit prime q in such a way that q divides (p-1).
 Choose a primitive root e0 in Zp .
 Create e1 such that : e1 = e0(p-1)/q mod p .
 Chose d as private key and calculate e2 = e1d.
 Alice’s public key Pk is (e1, e2, p, q); Private key is d.
