In addition to identifying a person, registering a secure authentication method is necessary for the electronic signature. Authentication serves as a release for the electronic signature in the signature process and confirms the authenticity of a person. Depending on the signature level, according to the EU regulation eIDAS, the Swiss federal law ZertES and ETSI/ISO standards, the authentication solutions must be approved as release methods for the advanced (at least one factor="SCAL1") or qualified electronic signature (at least 2-factor solution="SCAL2").
Select the appropriate authentication solution for your process or provide your own authentication for the signature release method.
We work with partners who provide the market's most secure and innovative two-factor authentication.
Certified auditors continuously check the processes and systems of our accredited certification body in Switzerland (according to ZertES) and our trust service in the EU (according to eIDAS). All authentication methods offered are approved according to these jurisdictions' signature level (qualified or advanced).
You use your existing authentication solution to release the electronic signature, which works on all smartphones and can be used for other business activities. This can be, for example, your used customer login methods or bank authentication apps for e-banking.
To minimize the additional effort required to approve the release method, Swisscom Trust Services provides a supported authentication SDK. You can use this as a signature release method and design it in your corporate identity or design so that your customers do not notice any context change in the signature process.
Use your secure authentication solution from another business context and extend it as an approval method for the electronic signature. Swisscom Trust Services will provide you with full support for approval by the responsible authorities. Also, offer your customers this approval option in connection with other Swisscom Trust Services partner applications.
During electronic signature registration, you set a secure password and then receive a one-time SMS code on your mobile phone number. In the future, you will use these two factors as the release method for the electronic signature. This authentication solution is already implemented and approved in the Signing Service.
