What does an electronic signature look like? What are its characteristics?
An electronic signature is the digital equivalent of a classic signature, affixed to a paper document. It is used to confirm the identity of the person signing the documents and is generated using dedicated cryptographic algorithms, thus maintaining authenticity and integrity.
Qualified and non-qualified electronic signature – differences
There are two types of electronic signatures – qualified (secure) and non-qualified (ordinary).
A non-qualified electronic signature does not require personal identity verification, which means that it requires a corresponding verification link or scans of documents that prove the person’s identity and organisation membership if an extended version is needed. The certificate does not need to be stored in a secure device, has no legal effect and does not automatically verify itself in document-reading programmes.
A qualified electronic signature , on the other hand, requires personal identity verification at selected points or by means of a notarised proof of identity. This type of certificate must be stored in a secure device, protecting access with a PIN code. It is not possible to export the certificate outside this device. The signature produces legal effects and is equivalent to the traditional form on paper documents. The qualified e-signature verifies itself automatically in document-reading programmes.

One of the tools we offer is V-Room. It provides a secure space for sharing and collaborating on documents. Security is ensured by a system of access for specifically designated people and the ability to track changes to a document with the indication of the person making the change.
This tool streamlines contract processing, whether we are dealing with activities between departments within an organisation or working with an external contractor.
The final step in the contract process is, of course, the signature. With Primesoft Sign, we can do this online and so we do not have to waste paper and time printing. We are able to do everything inside the V-Desk system.
