Introduction to Digital Rights Management - DRM

DRM Digital Signature

A digital signature is a number that is calculated from the contents of a file or message using a private key and appended or embedded within the file or message. The inclusion of a digital signature allows a recipient to check the validity of file or data by decoding the signature to verify the identity of the sender.

To create a digital signature, the media file is processed using a certificate or validated identifying information using a known encoding (encryption) process. This produces a unique key that could only have been created using the original media file and identifying certificate. The media file and the signature are sent to the recipient who separates the signature from the media file and decodes the key using the known decoding (decryption) process.
