rSeal remote electronic seal

The remote qualified electronic seal service allows a company (institution) to apply electronic seals to any documents. There is therefore no need to purchase certified HSM devices (with no obligation to service them, manage their security, and so on).

Before the service can be activated, a contract must be signed specifying, among other things, the scope of any implementation service. It is also important to agree on details concerning the expected volume of seals to be applied and the related guaranteed performance of the service.

REMOTE ELECTRONIC SEAL

• The remote electronic seal allows for the quick implementation of an efficient system for applying electronic seals. An e-seal does not require the purchase of costly security infrastructure;
• The remote e-seal has all the features and advantages of a “regular” electronic seal;
• The remote electronic seal is secure from an organizational standpoint. This is confirmed by the eIDAS compliance certificate, which covers the qualified remote seal-application service;
• The e-seal is also secure from a technical standpoint, because the HSM device used by CenCert holds a special certificate. The certificate confirms compliance with QSCD security requirements and thus covers the use of the device by a qualified entity, on the client's behalf, to provide the remote electronic seal tool
• The electronic seal, which matters to every user, is also secure from a personal data protection standpoint. This security is also essential for other information contained in documents, because only cryptographic hashes of documents are sent to the CenCert server. These hashes are then sealed, while the documents themselves are never sent to us.

The qualified service is provided in accordance with the current version of the Policy for Qualified Trust Services.
