Signing is accomplished by a cryptographic algorithm applied to the message itself or to a small block of data that is bound in some way to the message (e.g. a "message digest," which is a unique value generated by running the message through a one-way data compression function).

L'émetteur «signe» un message à l'aide de la clé privée. La signature se fait par l'application d'un algorithme de chiffrement au message lui-même ou à un petit bloc de données lié d'une certaine façon au message (p. ex., un «résumé du message» qui est une valeur unique générée par la compression à sens unique des données).
