DocuSign, a popular digital signature service, now supports the GlobalSign infrastructure

DocuSign signature is added to the PDF document in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.

If employees are quarantined and cannot go to the office, how do I sign documents?

GlobalSign and DocuSign have a technology partnership agreement . This means thatGlobalSign's Digital Signing Service (DSS) will be integrated into the DocuSign Trust Service Provider (TSP) ecosystem. TSP users will be able to easily use digital signatures generated on the GlobalSign backend.

All this works on the DocuSign Agreement Cloud platform, which combines more than a dozen applications and more than 350 such “integrations” for convenient creation of digital signatures, management and signing of documents.

The digital signature of documents has recently received significant momentum globally. And it’s not even a matter of the mass transfer of workers to remote work. In fact, the relevant projects were launched even earlier. First of all, because of the many initiatives to digitalize public services in e-government projects: from Latin America to Europe and Japan, as well as in more traditional markets. The DSS-DocuSign solution is ideally suited to implement these electronic document management services and comply with the regulatory requirements of their countries.



GlobalSign's Digital Signing Service cloud service is a scalable API platform for rapidly deploying digital signatures that provides:

• Digitally sign any document or transaction in the PKI system
  
• Certificate issuance
  
• AATL Microsoft Root
  
• HSM
  
• ,
  
• , , eIDAS, 21 CFR 11, ESIGN, HIPAA .

DSS allows companies to take advantage of trusted digital signatures to verify signatory compliance, content integrity, reliable time stamps - without the need to manage any physical equipment or create any custom integrations. In addition, customers are not required to have their own PKI or cryptographic specialists, as well as invest in and manage hardware.

It is actually about automation of labor of middle / junior engineers and middle / junior system administrators .

Of course, as an alternative to paid proprietary projects, you can organize a “cloud” service on your servers, giving users access to the API. For example, in the framework of the European project CEF Digital, an open-source solution Digital Signature Service ( code on GitHub , demo ) was developed . However, it should be remembered that he will have all the advantages and disadvantages of open source projects, which are raised on their own.
