Esignatures are being extensively adopted across most industries to improve security, reduce the use of paper, accelerate approval processes and enhance workflows. In our latest eBook, we identify how different industries benefit from eSignatures.

In this blog, we examine whether you have sole control of your eSignature. There are many types of electronic signatures but some of the most commonly used in business are Advanced Electronic Signatures as they are secure, identifiable and in some cases mandated by legislation or policy.

In B2C businesses, customer sentiment is often a main driver for change. In this blog, we examine how consumer confidence is driving eSignature adoption in businesses.

SHA1 is officially dead. For everyday users of electronic signatures, SHA1 might not mean much to you but we can assure you - this development is incredibly important!

What is SHA1?

SHA1 is a hash algorithm - a type of security measure used in popular software across the world. This includes the majority of electronically signed documents.

Digital agency Somo has built some of the most innovative and creative mobile products and campaigns in the market for leading global brands.

In this blog series, we've been exploring the benefits of eSignatures for different business departments including marketing, sales and finance. This week we discuss eSignature benefits for procurement. 

Every stage in the procurement process relies heavily on documentation and approval. From initial purchase requisition and requests for quotations, through to comparative bid analysis, contracts, purchase orders and goods received notes – each component of the procurement process needs to be clearly read, policy-checked, administered, approved and filed as documents make their way through the supply chain.

In the next in our blog series outlining how different business departments can benefit by using SigningHub, we discuss how electronic signatures can increase marketing team productivity.

In this blog, we discuss the importance of highly secure and efficient electronic invoice systems.

Invoices are an integral part of any business. Most organisations now have electronic invoicing systems and archive documents in digital form. This is much more efficient than paper and post but digital documents still need to be created and archived securely to prevent fraud.

Important documents are signed all the time: wills, contracts, government documents, the list is endless. The person’s signature identifies the signer, but also authorises the document by proving that they agreed to the terms stated.

Ensuring secure, remote signing doesn't have to be challenging. In our latest blog, we're discussing cloud signing and the ease of using advanced PKI digital signatures.
