Abstract

The hash result of useful data is transmitted to a multiply-protected central server in which it is transformed into a signature on the basis of a crypto operations system combination with a private key code of the originator. The signature is deposited in the central server and is available as what is referred to as a "digital signature" for the transmission of the useful data.
