<h1>Digital Signatures<a class="headerlink" href="#digital-signatures" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p>You can use a digital signature for many of the same reasons that you might
sign a paper document. A valid digital signature gives a recipient reason to
believe that the message was created by a known sender such that they cannot
deny sending it (authentication and non-repudiation) and that the message was
not altered in transit (integrity).</p>
<p>Digital signatures allow you to publish a public key, and then you can use your
private signing key to sign messages. Others who have your public key can then
use it to validate that your messages are actually authentic.</p>

<h2>Ed25519<a class="headerlink" href="#ed25519" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Ed25519 is a public-key signature system with several attractive features:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><strong>Fast single-signature verification:</strong> Ed25519 takes only 273364 cycles
to verify a signature on Intel&#8217;s widely deployed Nehalem/Westmere lines of
CPUs. (This performance measurement is for short messages; for very long
messages, verification time is dominated by hashing time.) Nehalem and
Westmere include all Core i7, i5, and i3 CPUs released between 2008 and
2010, and most Xeon CPUs released in the same period.</li>
<li><strong>Even faster batch verification:</strong> Ed25519 performs a batch of 64
separate signature verifications (verifying 64 signatures of 64 messages
under 64 public keys) in only 8.55 million cycles, i.e., under 134000
cycles per signature. Ed25519 fits easily into L1 cache, so contention
between cores is negligible: a quad-core 2.4GHz Westmere verifies 71000
signatures per second, while keeping the maximum verification latency
below 4 milliseconds.</li>
<li><strong>Very fast signing:</strong> Ed25519 takes only 87548 cycles to sign a
message. A quad-core 2.4GHz Westmere signs 109000 messages per second.</li>
<li><strong>Fast key generation:</strong> Key generation is almost as fast as signing. There
is a slight penalty for key generation to obtain a secure random number
from the operating system; /dev/urandom under Linux costs about 6000
cycles.</li>
<li><strong>High security level:</strong> This system has a 2^128 security target; breaking it
has similar difficulty to breaking NIST P-256, RSA with ~3000-bit keys,
strong 128-bit block ciphers, etc. The best attacks known actually cost
more than 2^140 bit operations on average, and degrade quadratically in
success probability as the number of bit operations drops.</li>
<li><strong>Collision resilience:</strong> Hash-function collisions do not break this system.
This adds a layer of defense against the possibility of weakness in the
selected hash function.</li>
<li><strong>No secret array indices:</strong> Ed25519 never reads or writes data from secret
addresses in RAM; the pattern of addresses is completely predictable.
Ed25519 is therefore immune to cache-timing attacks, hyperthreading
attacks, and other side-channel attacks that rely on leakage of addresses
through the CPU cache.</li>
<li><strong>No secret branch conditions:</strong> Ed25519 never performs conditional branches
based on secret data; the pattern of jumps is completely predictable.
Ed25519 is therefore immune to side-channel attacks that rely on leakage of
information through the branch-prediction unit.</li>
<li><strong>Small signatures:</strong> Ed25519 signatures are only 512-bits (64 bytes), one
of the smallest signature sizes available.</li>
<li><strong>Small keys:</strong> Ed25519 keys are only 256-bits (32 bytes), making them small
enough to easily copy and paste. Ed25519 also allows the public key to be
derived from the private key, meaning that it doesn&#8217;t need to be included
in a serialized private key in cases you want both.</li>
<li><strong>Deterministic:</strong> Unlike (EC)DSA, Ed25519 does not rely on an entropy
source when signing messages (which has lead to <a class="reference external" href="http://www.mydigitallife.info/fail0verflow-hack-permanent-sony-ps3-crack-to-code-sign-homebrew-games-and-apps/">catastrophic private key</a>
compromises), but instead computes signature nonces from a combination of
a hash of the signing key&#8217;s &#8220;seed&#8221; and the message to be signed. This
avoids using an entropy source for nonces, which can be a potential attack
vector if the entropy source is not generating good random numbers. Even a
single reused nonce can lead to a complete disclosure of the private key in
these schemes, which Ed25519 avoids entirely by being deterministic instead
of tied to an entropy source.</li>
</ul>
<p>The numbers 87548 and 273364 shown above are official
<cite>eBATS &lt;http://bench.cr.yp.to/&gt;</cite> reports for a Westmere CPU (Intel Xeon E5620,
hydra2).</p>
<p>Ed25519 signatures are elliptic-curve signatures, carefully engineered at
several levels of design and implementation to achieve very high speeds without
compromising security.</p>
