Asymmetric encryption is used to create the digital signature by generating a public-private key pair, and the sender signs the message using their private key. Hashing is then applied to the message to generate a fixed-length message digest. The message digest is then encrypted using the recipient's public key, and the encrypted digest is sent along with the original message. The recipient will then use their private key to decrypt the message digest, and then use hashing to generate a new message digest from the original message. If the two digests match, the message is considered authentic. Therefore, the combination of asymmetric encryption and hashing is used to create digital signatures.
