Advanced Signatures

E-signatures are digital signatures used to sign documents, transactions, and governance records online. They are legally recognized in most countries and have been standardized by the eIDAS regulation in Europe.

Organigram provides simple signatures by default and optional advanced signatures for members of an organization covered by Certified Entity services.

Signature levels

eIDAS signatures come in three levels of security:

• Simple e-signature: the default level on Organigram.ai. It is recognized in many jurisdictions for basic legal actions and contract signatures.
• Advanced e-signature: a higher level of security tied to identity verification and stronger authentication. It is often useful for sensitive organizational decisions, such as transfers of shares or votes in a shareholders meeting.
• Qualified e-signature: the highest level of security, usually requiring a qualified certificate and signing device. It can be legally equivalent to a handwritten signature in the European Union.

How Organigram uses advanced signatures

Advanced signatures provided by Organigram are issued through a certificate authority of the highest qualification level.

When an eligible user signs a certified procedure, Organigram can generate a proof file showing that the transaction or approval was signed by the verified owner of the account wallet.

This gives organizations a stronger record for decisions such as:

• appointing a CEO or officer
• approving annual accounts
• changing bylaws
• recording shareholder or member votes
• authorizing sensitive transactions

Requirements

To generate advanced signatures, the signer needs:

• an active ID certificate
• identity verification
• membership of a Certified Entity workspace
• an eligible certified procedure or workflow
