Digital Signature Authorship Verification

The document outlines a project demo for a system that proves authorship of posts using digital signatures. It details the steps to create a signed post, verify authorship, and demonstrate security against tampering. Key cryptography concepts such as digital signatures, hashing, and non-repudiation are also explained to emphasize the system's integrity and authenticity.

PROJECT DEMO (STEP-BY-STEP)

Project Title: "Signed status updates / posts to prove authorship in high-profile accounts"

🟢 BEFORE DEMO (SETUP)

Step 0: Start project

Open terminal in project folder and run:

node [Link]

Open browser:

[Link]

Say:

"This is a system to prove authorship of posts using digital signatures."

1️⃣ Create a Signed Post

What you do:

1. In Write post here, type:

Official update from verified account.

2. Click Publish Signed Post

What happens:

Post content is digitally signed


Signature is generated using private key
generated by "Markdown to PDF Fast Converter" 👉 [Link]
Post + signature stored securely

Show message:

Post signed and published

Say:

"Each post is signed using the private key of the high-profile account."

2️⃣ Explain Signature (VERY IMPORTANT)

Say:

"The signature is unique for this content. Any modification invalidates it."

3️⃣ Verify Authorship (Correct Case)

What you do:

1. Copy same post content into Post content field


2. Copy signature (from [Link] or backend)
3. Click Verify Authorship

Output:

Signature valid. Authorship verified.

Say:

"Using the public key, anyone can verify that the post came from the original author."

4️⃣ Tampering Test (SECURITY PROOF)

What
generated byyou do:
"Markdown to PDF Fast Converter" 👉 [Link]
Change even one word in the content
Keep same signature
Click Verify Authorship

Output:

Invalid signature.

Say:

"This proves integrity. Modified posts cannot be falsely claimed."

5️⃣ Non-Repudiation Proof

Say:

"Since only the account owner has the private key, they cannot deny posting this
message."

🔐 CRYPTOGRAPHY CONCEPTS (EXPLAIN DURING DEMO)

1️⃣ Digital Signatures (RSA)

Signs content using private key


Proves authorship

2️⃣ SHA-256 Hashing

Ensures message integrity

3️⃣ Public-Key Verification

Anyone can verify authenticity

4️⃣ Non-Repudiation

Author cannot deny the post

🧠 ONE-LINE FINAL STATEMENT (SAY THIS)

"This project uses digital signatures to ensure that high-profile social media posts are
authentic, tamper-proof, and verifiably authored."
