Validate Signature
In today's article we will explain how you can overcome these difficulties, using a new DigitalSign tool: DS Verify
Digitization and dematerialisation of processes today play a significant role in the structure of many companies — and perhaps the only positive point of the pandemic was to speed up this transformation, which has long been announced.
That is why, in addition to this dematerialisation, doubts arose, especially as to the validity of electronic signatures. In other articles we have explained the difference between the three types of signature (simple, advanced and qualified) and why qualified signature offers greater legal certainty and certainty. What we had not yet explained is how to confirm the existence of a qualified electronic signature — And that's what we do now.
" It has certainly already happened to you to receive an electronically signed document and not to be sure about the validity of your signature. Perhaps he even turned down his own document, fearing to accept something without any kind of probative value."
Order No 5108/2023 provides that digital representation certificates may only be issued — by a Qualified Trust Service Provider (PQSC) — the legal representative with sufficient powers to, alone, enforce and bind the legal person.
To this end, the FPSC shall ensure that the applicant has those powers of representation and shall clearly ensure the information of the documents that served as the legal basis for the issue. — in particular those concerning the powers of representation of the certificate holder.
In practice, these certificates will identify the legal representative of an organisation. Therefore, users no longer have to submit supporting documents for such powers. Thus, when someone signs an electronic document with a qualified representation certificate, there is no need to add additional evidence of their binding powers, as it is assumed that the PQSC has already validated this condition before the issue.
DigitalSign has developed a new tool, DS Verify. Its purpose is to verify that a qualified electronic signature (or qualified seal) affixed to a document is valid in accordance with the eIDAS Regulation. To do so, the only thing you need to do is submit the electronic document to DS Verify, so that it immediately gives you the results relating to the signature contained.
Confirm that the signatures of digital documents are qualified, thus ensuring their authenticity, integrity and non-refugee.
Get official validation reports, ready to use in audit processes, legal processes or formal acceptance of documents.
Ensure the validity of signatures over time and the adaptation to new cryptographic algorithms, with secure file of your documents.
Search documents quickly and intelligently with our Artificial Intelligence engine, even after years of storage.
Finally, it is advised that this tool is in accordance with the EIDAS Regulation, in particular Article 32 thereof, and with all the technical standards underlying it, which is a qualified service, as can be seen Here..
