Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for confirming transactions between cryptographic applications. A transaction confirmation is generated using metadata for ciphertext data. The transaction confirmation is signed using a private key of a temporary key pair. The signed transaction confirmation and a public key of the temporary key pair are converted into a publication format. The signed transaction confirmation and the public key of the temporary key pair are then published in the publication format.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- generating, via a computing device, a transaction confirmation using metadata for ciphertext data;
- signing, via the computing device, the transaction confirmation using a private key of a temporary key pair;
- converting, via the computing device, the signed transaction confirmation and a public key of the temporary key pair into a publication format;
- and
- publishing, via the computing device, the signed transaction confirmation and the public key of the temporary key pair in the publication format.
A system, comprising:
- a computing device;
- and
- an application executable in the computing device, the application comprising:
- logic that generates a transaction confirmation using metadata for ciphertext data;
- logic that signs the transaction confirmation using a private key of a temporary key pair;
- logic that converts the signed transaction confirmation and a public key of the temporary key pair into a publication format;
- and
- logic that publishes the signed transaction confirmation and the public key of the temporary key pair in the publication format.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising a program executable by a computing device, the program comprising:
- code that generates a transaction confirmation using metadata for ciphertext data;
- code that signs the transaction confirmation using a private key of a temporary key pair;
- code that converts the signed transaction confirmation and a public key of the temporary key pair into a publication format;
- and
- code that publishes the signed transaction confirmation and the public key of the temporary key pair in the publication format.
