Design and implementation of an electronic signature solution in the Justice Area

Published:10 November 2009Publication History

ABSTRACT

The real value of electronic signatures is not in their application to software products but in the level of security and trust they provide in a process. They should be able to provide identification of a sender and at the same time, they should be easy to use, and meet all legal and regulatory requirements as indicated by the legislation. It is obvious that electronic signatures offer a wide range of advantages to a government organization; however, their implementation needs to carefully consider what features are best suited to the specific needs of organizations. In this paper, we introduce a case study in the Justice Area where trust and better productivity were the important features to be supported. We draw some recommendations from the case study by addressing previous requirements, as well as social and managerial issues.
