Information Security on the Communication Net- work in Nigeria Based on Digital Signature

Abstract

This paper presents simple abstraction concepts for some digital signature scheme algorithms that include ElGamal Signature scheme, Schnorr Signature scheme, Elliptic Curve Signature (ECS), and Digital Signature Standard (DSA). It also examines the security of this digital signature scheme to measure its effectiveness and improve on the variability. The algorithms are essential in securing application in dispatching the documents on the communication network. We try to explain the algorithms in simple form and the examples are experimented in C++ programming language which presupposing little or easy mathematical background comprehension and easy computations.
