OpenPGP Verify Detached Signed Message
Description: A detached signature is produced by calculating an OpenPGP signature over the data intended for signing. The original data remains unchanged, and the OpenPGP signature is stored separately, e.g. as a standalone file. A detached signature file can be distributed alongside or independent of the original data. The authenticity and integrity of the original data file can be verified by using the detached signature file.
This signature format is especially useful for signing software releases and other files where it is imperative that the content remains unaltered during the signing process.
