Abstract
The authenticity of a compressed archive is verified without decompressing the files and/or directories contained therein and without impeding existing archive reader tools and utilities. A container is produced that includes a signature component and a compressed archive component. The signature component contains a digital signature of the compressed archive and the compressed archive component contains the compressed archive. The signature component and the compressed archive component are constructed as independent components so that existing software tools that operate on a compressed archive can still function in their normal course of operation.
