Enact a new rule, “Hashes”:-
The Hash of a Sentence is the MD5 Hash generated for it at http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/md5.php.
When a Hacker is required to Sign something, they should choose a grammatical English sentence of no more than 20 words which includes their own Corp Name and no other Corp Names, and then determine the Hash of that Sentence. This Hash should be written in full wherever the Hacker is required to Sign, and Hackers are encouraged to keep a private note of each sentence they choose and its Hash.
A basic framework for signing secret messages so that players can later confirm their authorship.
