Digital Signatures

Digital signatures deliver security and confidence

An increasing amount of business is conducted over the Internet today, and security is a critical issue. Protecting customers from identity theft and fraud must be a high priority for every business engaged in e-commerce. Without effective security, customers will quickly lose confidence in an organization.

Digital signatures have become a vital tool in securing Web transactions. Digital signatures are the Internet's equivalent of a passport - a document that verifies the identity of an individual or business - and enable secure and confidential communication between two parties using encryption. Digital signatures are conveyed via digital certificates - electronic documents issued by certification authorities (CA) that verify the identity of the certificate holder and contain information about the keys used for encryption.

When leading organizations worldwide want to protect the security of the customers with a market-leading solution for digital signatures, they turn to Entrust.
