Speed transactions and reduce paper
Online business processes are more convenient and reduce costs while serving users more quickly and efficiently. However, to comply with regulatory mandates and protect against fraud, electronic documents require a trusted way to track authorship and content integrity. Certified document solutions provide seamless, easy-to-use document authentication for electronic document exchange.
Document security one at a time
A SafeNet® FIPS 140-1 Level 2 cryptographic USB token is issued to an individual or a department. The token holds the verified signer's CDS certificate, and must be installed in the signing party's USB computer port. Each PDF document is signed individually, using a secure, two-factor process.
Sign many documents at once
A SafeNet FIPS 140-1 level 3 hardware security module (HSM) or an nCipher Classified Document Security Appliance stores the CDS certificate for use with the Adobe LiveCycle® Security Server. A PDF signature can be applied to a batch of documents such as bank statements, billing statements or reports.
Trusted verification provider
Certified document authentication ensures the highest level of document integrity and verification because the user’s or department’s digital credentials are stored on a cryptographic hardware device and are issued by a certificate authority that is:
- WebTrust-certified using strict guidelines, and
- approved by Adobe.
