DsaPublicKey

DSA Public Keys

DSA public keys contain the following fields:

• "q": The DSA subprime
• "p": The DSA prime
• "g": The DSA base
• "y": The DSA public key exponent
• "size" : The size of the modulus in bits

Note: All fields are WebSafeBase64 encoded twos-complement representations of positive integers.

The digest size is 384 bits. SHA1 is used for the digest.

Key Hash

The KeyHash components are: [leftTrimZero(p).length] + [leftTrimZero(p)] + [leftTrimZero(q).length] + [leftTrimZero(q)] + [leftTrimZero(g).length] + [leftTrimZero(g)] + [leftTrimZero(y).length] + [leftTrimZero(y)]

Meta

The relevant parts of the KeyMetadata are as follows:

{
    ...
    "purpose": "VERIFY", 
    "type": "DSA_PUB",  
    ...
}

JSON Representation
