The problem on digital signature scheme based on ideal class groups of quadratic fields remained open, because of the difficulty of computing class numbers of quadratic fields. In this paper, according to our researches on quadratic fields, we construct the first digital signature scheme in ideal class groups of quadratic fields, using q as modulus, which denotes the prime divisors of ideal class numbers of quadratic fields.
