-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 ============================================================================ Certificate ============================================================================ In conjunction with the file(s) that produce the following SHA-2 fingerprint, and in conjunction with the verification procedures available on TrueTimeStamp.org (copy available below), this certifies that the following file existed and was time-stamped on: Time: January 27, 2016 3:49:54 pm GMT Stored SHA-2 Fingerprint: e9dd4baf0d351b5a64c59ed6b1efd3108094b3585e17a0e5350fb200500058d9 Certificate Type: single-file Constituent Files: e9dd4baf0d351b5a64c59ed6b1efd3108094b3585e17a0e5350fb200500058d9 2016_01_27_million_dollar_curve.txt ============================================================================ Certificate Information ============================================================================ Authority: True Time Stamp ( http://TrueTimeStamp.org ) Certificate Number: 1497 Sequential Validity Chain: e710b7afaf27c25d211c3f516158f1e8bfe62114e5408b36f885eb87de47a448 ============================================================================ Important Note ============================================================================ 1 - Backup copy of the original unaltered file must be kept to authenticate this certificate. 2 - Some editing programs may inadverently alter files by including the "save time" in the file contents, or changing character encoding, even if no edits are made. Back-up using your operating system's copy function rather than "Save As". ============================================================================ Verification Procedures ============================================================================ Online - Single File Certificate: - Supply the ORIGINAL FILE to http://TrueTimeStamp.org for verification. Online - Multiple File Certificate: - Supply THIS CERTIFICATE to http://TrueTimeStamp.org for verification. - Additionally, for each file that you want to prove existed at the time point above, you must confirm that the SHA-2 of these file(s) matches those listed above (see instructions "Calculate SHA-2 Fingerprint of a file" below). Offline Procedures: - Use these procedures if http://TrueTimeStamp.org ceases to exist, or if you would like to independently confirm the electronic signature of this certificate. - Obtain GPG software ( https://www.gnupg.org/download ) - Obtain the True Time Stamp Public Key, from any of the servers below, by searching by email: EMAIL: signing-department@TrueTimeStamp.org KEY ID: B748A8F8 - http://truetimestamp.org/public-keys - https://pgp.mit.edu - http://keyserver.cns.vt.edu:11371 - http://keyserver.lsuhscshreveport.edu:11371 - http://keyserver.ubuntu.com - https://keyserver.pgp.com - http://keyserver.searchy.nl:11371 - http://keyserver.compbiol.bio.tu-darmstadt.de:11371 - Download the appropriate key, save as TrueTimeStamp-key4-DSA-3072.asc - Optionally, verify the fingerprint of the public key. PUBLIC KEY SHA-2 FINGERPRINT, base64 representation, UTF-8, UNIX-style line breaks, without headers or footers: 16fecee8a5fd4cc39facfd1c5db36fe2eec553cf0dfa2e7496d4a3556027790e - Import the downloaded public-key via command-line: gpg --import TrueTimeStamp-key4-DSA-3072.asc - Verify the authenticity of this certificate via command-lines: gpg --import TrueTimeStamp-key4-DSA-3072.asc gpg --verify myCertificateFile - For multi-file certificates, you may also confirm that: Stored SHA-2 Fingerprint matches the "Constituent Files" section - Copy & Paste text under "Constituent Files" section into a separate file, and save without trailing spaces and using UNIX-style newlines. - Calculate SHA-2 of this file, and confirm that this matches the Stored SHA-2 fingerprint. - For each file that you want to confirm the time stamp, calculate its SHA-2 fingerprint, and confirm that this is present in this certificate above. To Calculate SHA-2 Fingerprint of a file: - Online at http://TrueTimeStamp.org - Using software such as sha256sum, or openssl, with the command-lines: sha256sum MyFileName openssl dgst -sha256 MyFileName Sequential Validity Chain: - Guards against back-dating any time stamp, or removing any time stamp in the future. - Consists of SHA-2( Sequential Validity Chain of previous certificate, SHA-2 of current file, UNIX Time Stamp). - Validity Chains are intermittently submitted to other Time Stamping Services. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iFcDBQFWqOcibzsuardIqPgRCAFJAP4jExCh+VTvFJrhdcIJBLDSJrGWmg2dfD0L uvT4yHx88QD/XRfeTWH0m1C+re2/VtRdjJ/Z84dN5qFXZMY3R1MkJW0= =SP1B -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
