I'm seeing a few examples where after create keys it are validated. What is
the reason to do it? What kind of problem without validate the keys?
bool GeneratePublicKey( const ECDSA<ECP, SHA1>::PrivateKey& privateKey,
ECDSA<ECP, SHA1>::PublicKey& publicKey )
{
AutoSeededRandomPool prng;
// Sanity check
assert( *privateKey.Validate( prng, 3 )* );
privateKey.MakePublicKey(publicKey);
assert( *publicKey.Validate( prng, 3 )* );
return* publicKey.Validate( prng, 3 );*
}
What's means the level?
I'm looking this wiki page
https://www.cryptopp.com/wiki/Elliptic_Curve_Digital_Signature_Algorithm
but the explanation about validation is not included with the examples.
Regards
