The latest guest blog from the Ascertia partner community comes courtesy of Stefan Claeys, Managing Partner at KeySign who discusses the e-signature landscape, smart cards and remote signing.

This year we are excited to celebrate Ascertia’s 20th anniversary!

What is the Cloud Signature Consortium (CSC)?

Ascertia is a CSC member, a group of industry and academic organisations committed to building a new standard for cloud-based digital signatures that will support web and mobile applications and comply with the most demanding electronic signature regulations in the world. The CSC was created to develop common protocols so that distributed applications and services can leverage digital signatures in a non-proprietary way.

DigitalSign is a trust service provider and long-term Ascertia partner based in Portugal, operating across Europe and Brazil.

Headquartered in Ljubljana, Slovenia, CREAplus delivers solutions and services to high-trust organisations in both the private and public sector.

Qualified Trust Service Providers (QTSPs) work with customers in high-trust industries that require eIDAS certified Qualified Signatures.
