Abstract
In the past years, digital signature development has rapidly with new products combined with blockchain, named distribute networks, and quantum computers, while there plays a vitally important role in file authorization and verification. In combination with various new technologies, digital signatures present a vigorous vitality, and new algorithms are widely used in varieties of scenarios including banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), education, E-government, healthcare, and the military. In this case, there is no paper illustrating a summary of those new digital signature applications, which is the aim of this paper working on. This paper indicates the technology details of digital signatures and blockchain. And the paper discusses which digital signature algorithms are used in different fields to give an overview of the relationship between algorithms and scenarios. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates the comparison in the most commonly used digital signature algorithm containing Rivest–Shamir–Adleman (RSA) algorithms, Lamport algorithms, Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA), and Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) algorithms on their difference in performance.
