Abstract

As the need for digital data becomes more ubiquitous, so does the need to provide efficient mechanisms for distributing and verifying the authenticity of that data. We present an architecture for authenticating responses to queries from untrusted mirrors of authenticated dictionaries using Web Services and XML Signatures. We also describe an implementation of our scheme for the Secure Transaction Management System.
