The digital trust landscape is changing fast, and for Qualified Trust Service Providers (QTSPs), the pressure to deliver secure, compliant, and scalable services has never been greater.

Qualified electronic signatures (QES), Qualified seals, and trusted cloud signing workflows are critical for regulated industries. However, not every Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) can handle the unique demands of qualified trust.

What do you think when you hear the term digital trust? While it is often associated with online activities, many still find its true definition unclear.

MSC Trustgate is a licensed Certification Authority (CA) based in Malaysia, providing extensive PKI solutions to customers since 1999.

Cyprus launched its own electronic ID system on January 27^th, 2025. Applications for a national electronic identity card (eID) are open; the state will subsidise the first 100,000 issued—30,000 for free and 70,000 for €15.

Ascertia provides a fully integrated suite of Digital Trust products that enable TSPs, government and enterprises to deliver digital identities and signatures that are compliant with standards and regulatory requirements.

Founded in 2007, Signicat is a Norwegian company that provides digital identity solutions across Europe. Its products and services include identity proofing, electronic signatures and user authentication.

Ascertia is delighted to announce the release of ADSS Server 8.3.9.

In a recent blog, we discussed the impending arrival of digital identity wallets and speculated that this innovation could drive a significant increase in the adoption of high-trust digital signatures by enhancing their usability and their usefulness simultaneously.

Every new technology follows a predictable adoption curve. Innovators lead the charge, early adopters follow, and eventually, once a technology takes root, even the most reluctant users embrace the change. The pace of adoption varies, depending on prevailing social attitudes and the intrinsic usefulness and usability of the technology—telephones took nearly a century to become ubiquitous, televisions 30 years, and smartphones less than a decade.

In a digital economy, verifying the identity of businesses and organisations is critical. Enterprises, governments, and Trust Service Providers (TSPs) require robust mechanisms to establish trust, ensure compliance, and mitigate financial risks.
