10.3 digital signature In Cloud Computing

10.3. Digital Signature

The digital signature mechanism is a means of providing data authenticity and integrity through authentication and non-repudiation.
A message is assigned a digital signature prior to transmission, which is then rendered invalid if the message experiences any subsequent, unauthorized modifications.
A digital signature provides evidence that the message received is the same as the one created by its rightful sender.
Both hashing and asymmetrical encryption are involved in the creation of a digital signature, which essentially exists as a message digest that was encrypted by a private key and appended to the original message.
The recipient verifies the signature validity and uses the corresponding public key to decrypt the digital signature, which produces the message digest.
The hashing mechanism can also be applied to the original message to produce this message digest.
Identical results from the two different processes indicate that the message maintained its integrity.
The digital signature mechanism helps mitigate the malicious intermediary, insufficie nt authorization, and overlapping trust boundaries security threats (Figure 10.5)
Figure 10.5. Cloud Service Consumer B sends a message that was digitally signed but was altered by trusted attacker Cloud Service Consumer A.
Virtual Server B is configured to verify digital signatures before processing incoming messages even if they are within its trust boundary.
The message is revealed as illegitimate due to its invalid digital signature, and is therefore rejected by Virtual Server B.
