The Altova MissionKit is an integrated suite of XML, database, and UML tools that includes XMLSpy and other Altova tools at a special price.
Designed to allow for secure XML transactions, the XML Signature Recommendation from the W3C describes syntax and processing rules for creating digital XML signatures. An XML Signature enables digital authentication for data of any type that can be identified via a URI, though it is typically used for XML data. Digital authentication checks the integrity (whether the data has changed since it was signed) and the authenticity of origin (the identity of the signer) for XML transactions. In contrast to other digital signature methods, XML Signature is uniquely suited to working with XML data because it includes measures for canonicalization, which involves signing the important data while ignoring inconsequential changes such as whitespace and line endings.
