Taxonomy for Establishing Electronic Signature System
Main Article Content
Abstract
A signature is a stylized script associated with a person. It is comparable to a seal. In commerce and the law, a signature on a
document is an indication that the person adopts the intentions recorded in the document. An electronic signature is any electronic means that
indicates that a person adopts the contents of an electronic message. But for using electronic signatures we need to concentrate on security
threats, and as there are many signature schemes existing we need to concentrate on them. So here we provide taxonomy of various signature
schemes. We propose a simple server-based electronic signature system for which signing ensures. The motivation of such a system is to escape
the scalability and complexity problems that arise if a large-scale Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is used.
