Entrust Empowers Trusted Electronic Documents with New Digital Signing Automation Service
Entrust a global leader in trusted identity, payments and data protection, has announced its new Signing Automation Service, a cloud-based digital signing service that enables public and private sector organizations to create tamper-proof electronic documents.
“Trust comes in different forms, and document and signature authenticity is a foundational one. As businesses undergo their digital transformation, the need for verifiable, tamper-proof digital documents increases, and this evolution has been accelerated by the global pandemic”
The service connects to a company’s document application or document workflow system and automatically generates trusted digital seals for many electronic documents, establishing a verifiable cryptographic bond between the company’s legal entity and its electronic documents. This helps keep control and ownership of assets and intellectual property as well as providing peace-of-mind for customers receiving those documents.
Digital seals, alternatively known as corporate signatures or business signatures, are applied to electronic documents in order to prevent their content from any further editing. By applying a digital seal to an electronic document, the verified identity of the organization is included, and the document cannot be edited without breaking the seal and thus invalidating the signature. Together, these guarantee the authenticity and integrity of the sealed document, thereby helping reduce fraud and cut down on administration costs. Furthermore, by integrating into your existing document workflows – such as those from iText and Sysmosoft – this service provides a transparent process that is based on the established digital signing standards and protocols.
