Tool to validate signed data (xml document and binary file)
Does anyone know of a tool which allows you to verify signed data (both binary and xml, given a public key supplied via a text (or other) file)?
The tool (or tools) are required to do the following:
1. Given a signed xml document, allows the user to verify the contents of that document based upon a public key that the user provides from an external source (i.e. there is no key information stored in the xml document and the public key is stored as a text file on a network drive someplace (temporary key storage until a key management system is created))
2. Given a binary file, allows the user to verify the contents of the file given a public key (same key as used above). It would be cool if this tool could verify specific parts of the file e.g. bytes 100 - 199, but I think that is asking a bit much.
Unfortunately, I cant write a tool to do this because I am required to validate the tool I have already written (validation has to occur using an external application).
Cheers.
P.S. So as not to confuse the testers the tool(s) have to be windows based and not require a dozen and one other libraries.
P.P.S. Like every other tool we are using, free my boss adores free stuff.
