Ed25519 Signature Generator & Verifier
Ed25519 Signature Generator & Verifier: Computes Ed25519 Edwards-curve digital signature (RFC 8032) in browser memory.
About this ed25519 signature generator & verifier
Ed25519 Signature Generator & Verifier — browser-based utility.
How this tool works
Implements client-side Ed25519 Signature Generator & Verifier operations. Computes Ed25519 Edwards-curve digital signature (RFC 8032) in browser memory specifically designed for a blockchain developer signs and verifies a transaction using ed25519 high-speed elliptic curve signatures.
- Key Derivation & CSPRNG Nonce Generation: Derives cryptographic keys from passphrases via PBKDF2 with random salts and generates unique IV nonces.
- Authenticated Encryption (AEAD): Encrypts plaintext blocks and computes an authentication tag to protect against ciphertext tampering.
- Container Formatting: Packages salt, IV, ciphertext, and auth tag into standardized Base64 or JSON envelopes.
- Decryption & Tamper Verification: Verifies the authentication tag before decrypting; throws immediate integrity errors if data was modified.
Worked example
Scenario: Sign the UTF-8 message CZOA with a generated Ed25519 secret key.
Sample input:
Processing: Generates a key when none is supplied, signs the message, derives the public key, and verifies the signature locally.
Illustrative output:
Limits and verification
Never reuses an Initialization Vector (IV) with the same key (IV reuse in GCM mode destroys authenticity and leaks plaintext). Passphrases cannot be recovered if lost, as no backdoor or recovery key exists.
Examples demonstrate an expected workflow; they do not prove every input or every branch of an external specification. Check important results with an independent source before using them for money, security, compliance, safety, or irreversible file changes.
Browser processing boundary
Tool input is processed by code running in the browser and is not intentionally sent to a CZOA processing API. The page can still request ordinary site assets, analytics, or advertising when those services are enabled. Browser extensions and managed-device software remain outside this tool's control.

Frequently asked questions
How does Ed25519 Signature Tool choose sign or verify mode?+
It parses JSON and defaults operation to sign. The supplied message is UTF-8 encoded; verify requires signatureHex and publicKeyHex.
What is returned in signing mode?+
Signing returns algorithm Ed25519, operation sign, privateKeyHex, publicKeyHex, signatureHex, and verified after locally checking that signature.
What did the browser fixture verify?+
A sign request for CZOA returned verified true, a 32-byte private key, 32-byte public key, and a 64-byte signature represented as hex.
What does verify mode report?+
Verify returns JSON with algorithm, operation verify, and valid. It does not establish a signer identity, certificate chain, timestamp, or authorization.
