# Anonymous Cryptographic Proofs and Auth For when you need to share a file/authenticate anonymously, but want choices to prove anything anonymously/pseudoanonymously/full name/new name/etc Also for when you may want to burn those keys to destroy any evidence you were involved ## Method Step 1: Collecting Information Including - an input file to sign - a secure passphrase for use on an ssh key - a secure passphrase for use as an sha256/sha512 salt Step 2: Generating New Single-Use SSH Key Pair - ed25519 by default - secured with provided passphrase Step 3: Generating Checksums - Normal sha256 and sha512 checksums are generated of the input file and logged - sha256(passphrase+file contents) and sha512(passphrase+file contents) disgests are calculated and logged Step 4: Signing Files - Original file is signed by the ssh key with a detached signature file - checksums file is signed by the ssh key with a detached signature file Step 5: Verification - Both file and checksums files signates are checkeed against the ssh public key - The original file is tested with normal sha256, normal sha512, salted sha256, and salted sha512 Step 6: Output Public Files - Public files are added to a new directory and compressed with 7zip
