Digital Signature Algorithm
- A public-key signature scheme and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) for digital signatures, based on modular exponentiation and the discrete logarithm problem. DSA uses a private/public key pair, where the signer generates a signature with the private key, and any verifier can confirm the signature’s authenticity using the corresponding public key. DSA is mathematically related to the Schnorr and ElGamal signature schemes. ← Wikipedia
