    This document describes a web server that distributes digitally signed grade cards. The goals are to build a server that responds with degree certificates and grade cards when requested, as long as the request contains the user's identification information. The design addresses issues like getting documents signed by multiple authorities, ensuring only graduates can access them, and tracing the origin if shared. The implementation uses Java, Tomcat, and a MySQL database to create login pages and allow different user types - administrators, authorities, and students - to send, sign, and download documents with digital signatures and watermarks.

    Web Server to distribute


    Digitally Signed Grade-
    card
    BY:- AASHISH NAGPAL (2012CS50271)
    RAJAT THAKUR (2012CS50295)
    Goals & Requirements

    Goal:- Building a web server that responds with a degree-certificate


    and grade-card whenever someone requests for it.

    Requirements:-
    The request must contain the graduates unique entry-number or something
    for the user to be identified by.
    The degree-certificate and grade-card (possibly in PDF format) are suitably
    digitally signed by the university authorities.
    Issues Addressed

    Getting the document signed by more than one individual.

    Ensuring that only a graduate is able to download it.

    In case the graduate decide to share the document with others, how
    can one trace the origin of the document?

    Access to public-key certificate issued by a certification authority


    Design

    We built a web server in java which fulfills all the requirements and
    address all the issues listed above. Features of our web servers are:-

    Users are divided into 3 categories:-


    Admin (admin)
    Authority (Aashish, Rajat)
    Student (Student_1 , Student_2)

    Each user access the web server by login into his/her account.
    Design

    Different users have different capabilities when they access the web-
    server.
    Admin can send the grade sheets to different authorities for digital signature.
    Authorities digitally sign the grade sheets sent to them by admin.
    Student can then download the digitally signed grade sheet.

    Digital Signatures are marked as visible.

    Admin creates blank signature fields in the document to be filled by


    multiple authorities.
    Implementation

    We used Apache Tomcat 7.0 to create a server and java as the backend
    for the server.

    Website is divided into following pages:-


    Login page
    Send Document to Sign
    Sign a Document
    Download Document
    Implementation

    Database for the users was created in mysql which has the following
    structure:-
    Implementation

    Key pairs were generated for each of the authorities using the following command:-
    Keytool genkeypair alias myRSAKey keyAlg RSa keystore test.p12 storepass test
    storetype pkcs12

    Some of the features of the keys:-


    Generated using RSA.
    Keystore(manages private/public keys) Type is PKCS12.

    Pubic key Certificate to be used for verification of signature was generated using :-
    Keytool export keystore test.p12 alias myRsAKey file Certificate.cer
    Implementation

    This certificate can be used by Student to verify the digital signature of


    the authority.

    Following Libraries for different purpose:-


    PDFOne :- For editing PDFs
    Mysql-connector-java:- For jdbc connections

    Watermarks can also be added to the document to identify the origin of


    the document in case it is shared by multiple students.
