What is the meaning of the newspaper publication?
A newspaper publication contains a hash value and a date and time record. The hash value is an aggregate hash summary of all the hash values of the GuardTime Calendar since the beginning of the Calendar until the published date and time. Since every hash value recorded in the Calendar is an aggregate hash summary of all the digital content registered during the given 1-second interval, the newspaper publication cryptographically summarizes all the digital content registrations by GuardTime since the start of the timestamping service. As a cryptographic summary of the digital history, the newspaper publication serves as a reliable reference for verification under the assumption that the integrity of the newspaper can be reliably established.
