Validate your Documents

Do you receive electronically signed documents? Great, but do you know if these documents are indeed digitally signed by the right person? Omitting the verification step exposes you to cast doubt on the identity and the skill set of the signer(s) and ultimately the quality and value of the documents in question.

What is a digital signature?
A digital signature is an encrypted electronic signature which, when issued by a certification authority such as Notarius, guarantees an electronic document its origin, integrity, and authenticity.

An image is not worth a thousand words!

Traditionally, we like to see the visual aspect of a signature at the bottom of a document. On the other hand, in the world of working digitally, this visual aspect can be misleading! To properly verify the validity of an electronic document, all the key information contained in a Notarius digital signature must be verified, such as:

• the name of the signatory;
• his/her professional designation / position, where applicable;
• his/her affiliation to his/her association or organization, if applicable;
• the unique digital fingerprint of the document he/she signed.

This information is inside the Notarius digital signature and it is the affixing of this to an electronic document that gives it its integrity and establishes the authenticity of the document.

Validating is essential, easy and free!

It is through the act of validation that you can confirm the skills of the signatory and this being even more important when the latter is a member of an Order, an Association, or the employee of a company since Notarius’ digital signatures come directly from these organizations! Validating is therefore your greatest ally!
