As i mentioned , someone did show their concern on the security of test report, 
so dovetail will provide this optional parameter for them

digital signature is used to identify the source and its integrity, and surely 
it can raise the security level, or even better to get a digital certificate to 
make it more secure?

we can take that into consideration, thank you for your two cents, :)

I thought report is normally public to read.

But it is important to have digital signatures so that the content can be 
trusted. The algorithm is similar to encryption.

My two cents.

Hi all

The report in plain-text is vulnerable from malicious attacks.

If user want to secure their report and do not want the report be peeked at by 
any unexpected person,they can simply add a parameter into the command line.

Users do not need to know or learn any details about that how to encrypt.

Dovetail will provide a optional parameter "-e" ("–encrypt") for user to 
encrypt the test report.

With this parameter, dovetail will generate a report in cipher-text and a 
secret key in cipher-text together instead of a single plain-text report.


Welcome to share your great ideas on this topic!!
