Overview
With the emergence of Digital India, people and organizations are using digital documents instead of paper documents to conduct day-to-day transactions. Digital Signature (DSC) plays a pivotal role in this paperless journey by encrypting documents identities and fostering trust amongst the various stakeholders in our digital society. In simple words, Digital Signature is the electronic and encrypted version of any digital data or documents assuring the authentication of source of information. It is to be noted that soft copy of someone’s signature should not be assumed to be the digital signature. Digital Signature can also be considered as a more secure type of e-signature because they’re cryptographically bound to the signed document and can be verified. When you use a digital certificate obtained from a trusted third party to e-sign, the resulting digital signature is virtually impossible to spoof. It also provides powerful evidence of signer identity, that the signed document was not altered, and that the signatures are valid.
What are the benefits of Digital Signature?
Digital signatures offer numerous advantages in the world of business, revolutionizing the way documents are signed, verified, and processed. Here are some key advantages of digital signatures in business:
- Enhanced Security- Because of cryptographic algorithms to secure documents, Digital signatures cannot be tempered, ensuring that once a document is signed, any unauthorized changes are detectable. This level of security far exceeds that of traditional paper signatures.
- Authentication- Authentication level is very high in Digital signatures. Identities of signatories are always verified ensuring that the signature belongs to the person or entity it claims to represent. This reduces the risk of fraud and impersonation.
- Cost Efficiency- Annual turnover of company should not exceed Rs. 100 crore for any of the financial years since its Incorporation
- Innovative & Scalable- Company should work towards development or improvement of a product, process or service and/or have scalable business model with high potential for creation of wealth & employment
- Legal Compliance and Enforceability- One of the great advantages of digital signatures is that they are enforceable in just about every developed country worldwide. Digital signature can be applied from anywhere in the globe.
- Higher Security- Digital Signature is meant to bring enhanced security to the digitally signed document/ data.
