Remote digital signature - Optimal security solution for business processes

I. What is a remote digital signature?

Remote Digital Signature is a form of electronic signature performed remotely, ie the signer does not need to be physically present to sign the document. Instead, the signing process takes place through the use of technologies and software that allow the signer to authenticate and attach a signature remotely to the document.

II. Working principle of remote digital signature

The principle of operation of a remote digital signature (Remote Digital Signature) usually includes the following steps:

• Identity authentication: The signer needs to verify his identity through the process of logging into the remote digital signature system. Usually, this process requires the use of a username, password, OTP (One-Time Password) or other authentication methods.
• Generate public and private keys: Once the signer has successfully authenticated his identity, the system generates a public and private key pair for the signer. The public key is stored on the system, while the private key is only in the possession and management of the signer.
• Select the document to sign: The signer selects the document to be signed remotely on the remote digital signature system interface. The document is displayed online and the signer can preview the content before signing.
• Generate digital signature: The signer uses his private key to create a remote digital signature on the system interface. The process of creating a digital signature involves using a cryptographic algorithm to apply a digital signature to a document, ensuring the integrity and authenticity of the content.
• Attach a digital signature to a document: After creating a digital signature, the system will attach the digital signature to the corresponding document. This process ensures the integrity of the document and helps the recipient verify the signature upon receipt of the document.
• Storage and transmission: A remote digitally signed document after being signed will be stored on the system or transmitted to the recipient. A remote digital signature ensures that the document is not altered in transit and can be authenticated by the recipient using the signer's public key.

Through this operating principle, a remote digital signature ensures the authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of a digitally signed document, without requiring the direct presence of the signer.

III. What are the benefits of remote digital signature?

3.1. Remove hardware device

With remote digital signature, there is no need to use hardware devices such as USB Token or SmartCard to store private keys. Users can access and use digital signatures remotely through an online environment, which is simpler and more convenient.

3.2. Strong security

Remote digital signatures apply strong encryption methods and secure protocols to ensure the security of signing and data transmission. The private key is not disclosed and only the user with access can sign the document.

3.3. Optimizing cost and time

The use of remote digital signatures saves costs associated with purchasing and maintaining hardware equipment. In addition, the process of signing and validating documents is fast and flexible, reducing waiting time and increasing work efficiency.

3.4. Digitize all documents and documents

Remote digital signature allows digitization of any documents and documents. Users can digitally sign PDF documents, Word documents, Excel spreadsheets and many other document formats easily and conveniently.

3.5. Process integration and automation

Remote digital signatures can be integrated into automated workflows, helping to optimize document signing and authentication. Enterprise systems and applications can integrate remote digital signatures to ensure workflow consistency and efficiency.

In short, remote digital signatures bring many benefits such as eliminating hardware devices, strong security, cost and time optimization, document digitization and process automation integration. This improves work efficiency, protects information, and saves users time.

IV. Application of remote digital signature today

Remote digital signatures are now applied in many different fields and applications, including:

4.1. E-commerce (Ecommerce)

Remote digital signatures are used to authenticate and ensure the integrity of online purchases. It helps buyers and sellers to securely and reliably confirm identities and authenticate transactions.
