They can signify various intents, including certification, consent, acknowledgment, or even revocation by the signer. The multifaceted nature of "statements" conveyed through digital signatures in cryptographic protocols is wide-ranging but crucial, allowing third parties to inspect/evaluate these statements for authenticity and intended purpose. -```{admonition} VISUAL -:class: warning - -- add visualization showing: message + private key (signing) = signature -> message + signature + public key (verification) = validation confirmed? -``` - Digital signatures in OpenPGP are used in two primary contexts: - [Certification statements](certifications_chapter)
