What is digital signature?

Please support my channel by becoming a Sunny Classroom member. Your support is much appreciated.
/ sunnyclassroom
A digital signature is equivalent to a handwritten signature in paper, and a digital signature serves three basic purposes. Digital signature is commonly used for software distribution, financial transactions and other cases where it is important to detect forgery. Digital signatures are very popular with e-mail users.
In this video, I will talk about the digital, uses, and the whole process of creating and sending digitally signed document over the Internet.
Keep in mind, digital signature is not about encrypting document, just like paper-based signature.

[@amosgakwerere266]

the entire semester i did not understand this but only 5 min i got it, thank you Sunny

[@Ada-hd3zp]

Sunny, I just wanted you to know that today I provisionally passed SSCP and I would have not achieved it without your youtube lessons. You are the best teacher any student could hope for!

[@sunnyclassroom24]

congratulations! I am so glad to hear it.

[@thkhan]

share your experience while achieving SSCP

[@mulimotola44]

Great explanation! Thank you! I only want to add that the reason we use a hashing algorithm before encrypting a digest, is to make the digital signature small. Because if the plain text message was 10GB in size, then using a hashing algorithm on it creates a small string of only a few bytes. But we if created the digital signature from the entire 10GB text message, then we would have to send 20GB worth of data - 10GB for the original message, and another 10GB for the digital signature used to verify that it was signed by Bob. In case anyone else was wondering why we use a hash algorithm to create a digest, before encrypting it with the private key to create a small digital signature. Remember, if any small change was made to the original message, the digest would be completely different, and that's why we can use this method to decrease the size of the digital signature.

[@kristiyanivanov7414]

Good to know!

[@bac7002]

I was so confused and I was exactly looking for an answer of that question in the comments section. Thank you, you are a legend.

[@naibeginning5775]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zneai2qCjdiFZsk Do you have Digital Signature ????

[@natolgaa]

I can’t believe I didn’t stumble upon your videos earlier while studying for the CISA. Domain 5 has had some difficult concepts to understand and taking even 30 min to watch a few of your videos has finally made concepts click. Thank you so much, you’re a wonderful teacher!

[@manishashenoy7474]

You explain this better than anyone, Sunny. We are so blessed that you are on KZbin. There are ones that talk for 1 hour and don't explain it as well as you have in 5 minutes. Thanks for explaining it so well!!!!

[@sunnyclassroom24]

Wow, thank you!

[@faiqarif5765]

Woah my book fails to explain this in 5 pages, what you did in just a few minutes.

[@leonardolelisrocha]

The same here, his explanation make the subject very ease.

[@its_bijay_adhikari]

exactly!!

[@NutzndBoltzTutorials-zs2fy]

Exactly

@Matias Gatlin Since she is your girlfriends & you know in & out about her , then what made it necessary to hack her account

[@khalidabdi9537]

bro can u send me yr book and help me do my thesis if u don't mind?

[@susanmyonghee]

Sunny, you are a treasure! I'm so grateful I stumbled upon your channel. Your explanations and visuals break the topics down so that it's so understandable. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 🙏🏻

[@psoidonym2389]

Sunny, your explanations are spot on. In your Public key video, you made clear, that the process starts with the receiver. Here you pointed out, that digital signature and encrypting the message are two distinct things. I watched a ton of videos to understand those concepts. No one made these differentiations. Hence, they are critical for the understanding. Thank you very much for your work.

[@ssambadenis9401]

I must thank you sunny for wrapping up the whole topic meant for 1 and half hours in just 5 minutes. It was really educational and useful.

[@Wolcik3000]

you explain it very well - the logic is sound and easy to follow unlike some people that gets trapped in the technical details before explaining the basic steps

[@bpaulkim]

I love this guy's videos. Simple and clear.

[@prkhr.kmr.27]

Your videos make such complex stuff so damn easy to understand! Your explanations answer questions which even whole of the web can't.

[@sunnyclassroom24]

Thank you very much for your encouraging words. I will try my best to live up to your kind words.

[@michaelbenford492]

Thanks for explaining this and other topics so clearly! I have watched lots of other videos by professors, experts and students but they all miss the point. You explain this and other topics so logically and clearly that it's a pleasure to watch. Thank you so much!

[@axionW]

Thank you Sunny! I was preparing myself on your channel for the cryptography exam for my dream job. I got the job and I explained digital signature, hash functions and PKI exactly the way you do on your channel. Thanks to you I had the best written exam among all the participants. Keep doing the great job!

[@sunnyclassroom24]

I am happy for you and congrats on your new job. I will do my best. Come back to channel sometimes and suggest new topics for me. Congrats again.

[@axionW]

@@sunnyclassroom24 I certainly will. As you asked me for a suggestion, I would love to see you explain how some of the cryptographic primitives reside in the crypto asset world. i.e. how did Bitcoin protocol made use of digital signature, or explanation of some more advanced techniques like ZKP and how the zkSNARKs are made and their components or cryptography behind Mimblewimble protocol. Have a nice day sunny and please don't forget to enjoy yourself!

[@prar_shah]

After watching tons of videos... finally I was able to understand the concept after watching your video..thanks alot sir

[@sunnyclassroom24]

You are welcome! I am glad that it helped.

[@manudeepp5666]

Good stuff man! You made this concept crystal clear

[@Artificial_Intelligence_AI]

bob and alice using cryptography techniques again!!! they are amazing lol

[@roytitas]

You make any topic so simple yet clear. Thank you very much Sunny, I have always referred to your videos when in doubt.

[@paulg6340]

The best description of this topic I have found, very helpful, thanks very much!

[@dannuttle9005]

It's embarrassing how little I understood about this, and remarkable how clear this video makes the subject. Well done.

[@SnoiperTV]

amazing video, better explained than almost all books that i read about it

[@abuabdulrahman1871]

I am reading from the book, it took me hour to barely understand, five minutes video goes directly to the point, thanks Sunny!

[@sunnyclassroom24]

Great to hear!

[@navaneeth5341]

It took me several years to understand this simple process. Thanks, Sunny.

[@barrypringle6717]

Finally I've managed to find a youtube video on this topic which makes complete sense thank you. The graphics explained this very well and now i understand at last

[@beenarautela]

I am glad to found out your channel. You really explain the complex topics in a simple, clear and concise manner. Your videos helped me understand the Assymetric encryption topic well. Thank you so much :)

Bob, I agree with the other positive comments. This is the absolute best explanation of digital signatures with email or memo that I have seen. Great job and thank you for this. 👍🙌

[@jerichosharman470]

WOW, what an awesome explanation and diagram........and you anticipate the confusion some can have with the message vs signature encryptian

[@sunnyclassroom24]

Thanks a lot.

[@tylercgarrison]

interesting that 5 mins in a free video from someone who speaks english as a second language is more helpful than a $500 textbook and a lecture from an expensive institution.. Thanks Sunny, you're awesome
