welcome back aliens

my name is 720 and let's continue this

series on blockchain in this video we'll

talk about digital signature why do we

need it so let's go back to the previous

video where we have talked about four

problems on the network the first one

was confidentiality second one was

integrity third one was non-repudiation

and fourth one is authentication so we

have talked about confidentiality right

how do we achieve that with the elf of

cryptography of course what we do is we

use a receivers public key to encrypt

the message and then the moment this

message received at the receiver end the

receiver will decrypt the message with

the help of his own private key and

that's how it works and no one else can

actually decrypt the message because no

one has the receivers private key so

that works right we have achieved

confidentiality

what about authentication how do we

achieve that and that's where we have a

concept of digital signature so let's

imagine we have multiple nodes on this

network and one of them is a and the

other one is B and B has received a


packet or the message by saying let's

meet at 6 p.m. and packet claims that

this is coming from node and a and this

sort of starts you know how can you be

sure that this packet has came from node

a and how node a can say hey I have sent

that message so to solve this problem

you know in real world as well what we

do when we write a letter

we also sign the letters like that's

your signature which specifies that this

letter has been sent by you or written

by you how can we do that in the virtual

world of course we cannot use a pen well

right and that's why we have to use a

digital signature how can we do that so

let's imagine we have two keys right so

everyone will have two key a private key

and a public key if I were to send a

message so let's say a want to send a

message to B and the message is let's

meet at 6 p.m. now before sending that

message what if Abel entered the message

with the help of is private key and then

this message goes to the B and

is able if you decrypt it with a is

public key but then hold on his public

key will be available to everyone right

that's the case we are not trying to


achieve confidentiality here we are

trying to achieve signature the moment a

is able to sign the message by his own

private key and it is decrypted by a

public key on the B's and now be sure

that this message is coming from a

because this message was able to decrypt

with the help of a sperm the key and the

only way you can do that is by if this

message has been encrypted by a private

key and now we have achieved

authentication right but then we are

losing confidentiality right how can we

achieve that so what we normally do is

from the azar itself so before sending

the message a first will encrypt the

message using a s private key and then

the same packet will be again encrypted

with the help of B is public key so we

have double encryption reusing B's

public key and then ace private key

well B received that package it will

first decrypt the message with the help

of B's private key and then it will

again think of the message using is

public key and that's done right now we

got a message so we have achieved two

things here confidentiality and second

one is authentication and that's how it

works so even if you have seen between C


cannot decrypt the message because it is

encrypted with the help of it B is

public key right and that's how we

achieve signature I hope you enjoyed
