In recent news, crimes involving the misuse of \u201cdeep fake\u201d technology have been stirring major controversy. By using AI to create fake photos and videos that are incredibly hard to distinguish from reality, perpetrators are spreading highly convincing fake content. As technology continues to advance, it\u2019s becoming easier to create fakes that look and sound just like the real thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naturally, verifying authenticity is just as important in contracts that require electronic documents and e-signatures. To protect what truly matters\u2014our \u201creal\u201d information\u2014we need robust anti-tampering measures and the ability to track any changes that might occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, how does eformsign guard against document tampering and track every step of the contract process\u2014especially when security is on the line? In this post, we\u2019ll walk you through the key features that make it all possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Proving Document Authenticity: Timestamp<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A timestamp verifies the status of a document at a specific point in time. In other words, it proves that a document hasn\u2019t been altered since it was completed, confirming it\u2019s the original version. eformsign\u2019s timestamps are provided through a certification authority that meets the international RFC-3161 standard.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Verifying Document Authenticity: Document Authenticity Checker<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

eformsign\u2019s document authenticity checker feature allows you to easily confirm whether a document is genuine or has been tampered with. By comparing original verification keys (hash values), you can thoroughly detect any signs of tampering. Combined with the timestamp, this dual-layer approach helps prevent document forgery and modification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25a0 Tracking the \u201cOriginal\u201d Document via Audit Trails<\/span><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wouldn\u2019t it be reassuring if you could see exactly who signed a contract, when they signed it, and the steps taken to complete it? This level of detail greatly increases your confidence in a contract\u2019s authenticity. With eformsign, we provide an audit trail certificate<\/strong> that keeps track of all activities related to your document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714\ufe0f Document Authenticity Tracking: Audit Trail Certificate<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The audit trail certificate is a record of every piece of information generated throughout the document creation process. Beyond simply documenting the file and signer details, it also captures pivotal events\u2014such as the document\u2019s initial creation, the insertion of signatures and stamps, and document processing for each step of the workflow\u2014along with timestamps, IP addresses, and the device\/browser information used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you complete a contract in eformsign, the audit trail certificate is automatically generated alongside the contract. We highly recommend sharing this certificate with signers along with the contract to help prevent any potential legal disputes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Through eformsign\u2019s multiple tampering-prevention tools, any verified document can be confidently used for various contracts, consent forms, applications, and more\u2014without worrying about legal validity. Rely on eformsign\u2019s features to prove, verify, and track document authenticity for a safe and secure electronic contract experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
