The passage of the E-sign bill has given a major push for conducting business on-line. But the law is just a facilitator. Organizations have to look into the various technologies that can make use of this law and implement them within their business processes. One of the most important factors would be establishing business trust with the help of e-signatures. Digital Signature Technology is a clear winner from this perspective. The ability not only to verify the document contents but also the signer certificate provides a much higher level of business trust and non-repudiation. It is important that the organizations look into digital signature applications, which allow for these features within them so as to provide for an overall secure e-business solution.
