<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>
This specification defines a cryptographic suite for the purpose of creating,
and verifying proofs for ECDSA signatures in conformance with the
Data Integrity [[VC-DATA-INTEGRITY]] specification. ECDSA signatures are
specified in [[FIPS-186-5]] with elliptic curves P-256 and P-384 specified in
[[NIST-SP-800-186]]. [[FIPS-186-5]] includes the <em>deterministic</em> ECDSA
algorithm which is also specified in [[RFC6979]].
</p>
<div class="note">
<p>
The elliptic curves P-256 and P-384 of [[NIST-SP-800-186]] are respectively referred
to as <em>secp256r1</em> and <em>secp384r1</em> in [[SECG2]]. This notation is
sometimes also used by ECDSA software libraries.
</p>
<p>
Developers are cautioned to not confuse <em>secp256<b>r</b>1</em> terms with
<em>secp256<b>k</b>1</em> terms; the latter are from a third, <em>different</em>,
elliptic curve, that is not used by this specification. ECDSA software libraries
might not implement all of these curves, so developers need to take care when
choosing an ECDSA software library for their implementation.
</p>
</div>
<p>
This specification uses either the RDF Dataset Canonicalization Algorithm
[[RDF-CANON]] or the JSON Canonicalization Scheme [[RFC8785]] to transform the
input document into its canonical form. It uses one of two mechanisms to digest
and sign: SHA-256 [[RFC6234]] as the message digest algorithm and ECDSA with
Curve P-256 as the signature algorithm, or SHA-384 [[RFC6234]] as the message
digest algorithm and ECDSA with Curve P-384 as the signature algorithm.

<h3>Terminology</h3>
<p>
Terminology used throughout this document is defined in the
<a data-cite="VC-DATA-INTEGRITY#terminology">Terminology</a> section of the
[[[VC-DATA-INTEGRITY]]] specification.
</p>
</section>
<section id="conformance">
<p>
A <dfn>conforming proof</dfn> is any concrete expression of the data model
that complies with the normative statements in this specification. Specifically,
all relevant normative statements in Sections
[[[#data-model]]] and [[[#algorithms]]]
of this document MUST be enforced.
</p>
<p>
A <dfn class="lint-ignore">conforming processor</dfn> is any algorithm realized
as software and/or hardware that generates or consumes a
[=conforming proof=]. Conforming processors MUST produce errors when
non-conforming documents are consumed.
</p>
<p>
This document contains examples of JSON and JSON-LD data. Some of these examples
are invalid JSON, as they include features such as inline comments (`//`)
explaining certain portions and ellipses (`...`) indicating the omission of
information that is irrelevant to the example. Such parts need to be
removed if implementers want to treat the examples as valid JSON or JSON-LD.

<h2>Data Model</h2>
<p>
The following sections outline the data model that is used by this specification
to express verification methods, such as cryptographic public keys, and
data integrity proofs, such as digital signatures.
</p>
<section>
<h3>Verification Methods</h3>
<p>
These verification methods are used to verify Data Integrity Proofs
[[VC-DATA-INTEGRITY]] produced using Elliptic Curve cryptographic key material
that is compliant with [[FIPS-186-5]]. The encoding formats for these key types
are provided in this section. Lossless cryptographic key transformation
processes that result in equivalent cryptographic key material MAY be used
during the processing of digital signatures.
</p>
<section>
<h4>Multikey</h4>
<p>
The <a data-cite="controller-document#multikey">Multikey format</a>, defined in
[[[controller-document]]], is used to express public keys for the cryptographic
suites defined in this specification.
</p>
<p>
The `publicKeyMultibase` property represents a Multibase-encoded Multikey
expression of a P-256 or P-384 public key.
</p>
<p>
The `publicKeyMultibase` value of the verification method MUST start with the
base-58-btc prefix (`z`), as defined in the
<a data-cite="controller-document#multibase-0">Multibase section</a> of
[[[controller-document]]]. A Multibase-encoded ECDSA 256-bit public key value or
an ECDSA 384-bit public key value follows, as defined in the
<a data-cite="controller-document#Multikey">Multikey section</a> of
[[[controller-document]]]. Any other encoding MUST NOT be allowed.
</p>
<p class="advisement">
Developers are advised to not accidentally publish a representation of a private
key. Implementations of this specification will raise errors in the event of a
Multicodec value other than `0x1200` or `0x1201` being used in a
`publicKeyMultibase` value.

The `secretKeyMultibase` property represents a Multibase-encoded Multikey
expression of a P-256 or P-384 secret key (also sometimes referred to as a
private key).

</p>
<p class="advisement">
Developers are advised to prevent accidental publication of a representation of a secret
key, and to not export the `secretKeyMultibase` property by default, when serializing
key pairs as Multikey.

of [[VC-DATA-INTEGRITY]] with the following restrictions.
</p>
<p>

<h2>Algorithms</h2>
<p>
The following section describes multiple Data Integrity cryptographic suites
that utilize the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA)
[[FIPS-186-5]]. When generating ECDSA signatures, the signature value MUST be
expressed according to section 7 of [[RFC4754]] (sometimes referred to as the
IEEE P1363 format) and encoded according to the specific cryptosuite proof
generation algorithm. All ECDSA signatures SHOULD use the <em>deterministic</em>
variant of the algorithm defined in [[FIPS-186-5]].
</p>
<p>
Implementations SHOULD fetch and cache verification method information as
early as possible when adding or verifying proofs. Parameters passed to
functions in this section use information from the verification method
— such as the public key size — to determine function parameters
— such as the cryptographic hashing algorithm.
</p>
<p id="canon-and-hash">
When the RDF Dataset Canonicalization Algorithm (RDFC-1.0) [[RDF-CANON]] is used
with ECDSA algorithms, the cryptographic hashing function used by RDFC-1.0 is
chosen based on the size of the associated public key. For P-256 keys, the
default hashing function, SHA-2 with 256 bits of output, MUST be used. For P-384
keys, SHA-2 with 384-bits of output MUST be used, specified via the RDFC-1.0
<a data-cite="RDF-CANON#dfn-hash-algorithm">implementation-specific parameter</a>.
</p>
<p class="advisement">
When the RDF Dataset Canonicalization Algorithm [[RDF-CANON]] is used,
implementations of that algorithm will detect
<a data-cite="RDF-CANON#dataset-poisoning">dataset poisoning</a>
by default, and abort processing upon detection.

<h3>ecdsa-rdfc-2019</h3>

<h3>ecdsa-jcs-2019</h3>
<p>
The `ecdsa-jcs-2019` cryptographic suite takes an input document, canonicalizes
the document using the JSON Canonicalization Scheme [[RFC8785]], and then
cryptographically hashes and signs the output
resulting in the production of a data integrity proof. The algorithms in this
section also include the verification of such a data integrity proof.

<h4>Create Proof (ecdsa-jcs-2019)</h4>
<p>
The following algorithm specifies how to create a [=data integrity proof=] given
an <a>unsecured data document</a>. Required inputs are an
<a>unsecured data document</a> ([=map=] |unsecuredDocument|), and a set of proof
options ([=map=] |options|). A [=data integrity proof=] ([=map=]), or an error,
is produced as output.
</p>
<ol class="algorithm">
<li>
Let |proof| be a clone of the proof options, |options|.
</li>
<li>
If <var>unsecuredDocument</var>.<var>@context</var> is present, set
<var>proof</var>.<var>@context</var> to
<var>unsecuredDocument</var>.<var>@context</var>.
</li>
<li>
Let |proofConfig| be the result of running the algorithm in
Section [[[#proof-configuration-ecdsa-jcs-2019]]] with
|proof| passed as the <em>proof options</em> parameter.
</li>
<li>
Let |transformedData| be the result of running the algorithm in Section <a
href="#transformation-ecdsa-jcs-2019"></a> with |unsecuredDocument|
and |options| passed as parameters.
</li>
<li>
Let |hashData| be the result of running the algorithm in Section
[[[#hashing-ecdsa-jcs-2019]]] with |transformedData| and |proofConfig|
passed as a parameters.
</li>
<li>
Let |proofBytes| be the result of running the algorithm in Section
[[[#proof-serialization-ecdsa-jcs-2019]]] with |hashData| and
|options| passed as parameters.
</li>
<li>
Let |proof|.|proofValue| be a <a data-cite="controller-document#multibase-0">
base58-btc-encoded Multibase value</a> of the |proofBytes|.
</li>
<li>
Return |proof| as the [=data integrity proof=].
</li>

<h4>Verify Proof (ecdsa-jcs-2019)</h4>
<p>
The following algorithm specifies how to verify a [=data integrity proof=] given
an <a>secured data document</a>. Required inputs are an
<a>secured data document</a> ([=map=] |securedDocument|). This algorithm returns
a [=verification result=], which is a [=struct=] whose [=struct/items=] are:
