Worked Example of Digital Signature Algorithm
- by drelihan
Hi Folks,
Does anybody have a DSA worked example with simple values on how to calculate r,s and verify v == r. As this standard has been around awhile and is implemented in librarys e.g. the Java Cryptography Extension I'm finding it very hard to find an example of how the algorithm works.
Compute r=(gk mod p) mod q
Compute s=(k-1 * (x * r + i)) mod q
Verifying a signature; again i is the input, and (r,s) is the signature.
u1 = (s-1 * i) mod q
u2 = (s-1 * r) mod q
v = ((gu1 * yu2) mod p) mod q
If v equals r, the signature is valid.
Thanks,
