Question
Chapter 8, Problem R13RQ
Program Plan Intro
Hash Function:
Any function that can be used to map data of arbitrary size to data of a fixed size is called a hash function.
Hash functions provide message integrity as it is computationally infeasible to find any two messages with the same hash.
Digital Signature:
Public-key primitives of message authentication are called digital signatures.
