But what are the benefits of implementing authentication and digital signature solutions?

Let’s talk about Viafirma Fortress solution. This solution of our suite is responsible for guarding centralized keys and signatures with Robust Authentication.

In other words, it allows the digital certificate signature from any device without being installed on the device which you want to make the signature. This is known as a centralized signature or cloud signature.

One of the main features is that it is accessed through robust identification, which requires at least two identification procedures:

  • Something the user “knows” (eg, a password)
  • Something the user “has” (eg a key card, token received via SMS on your mobile, or OTP token generated in your mobile app registered in your name)
  • Something that the user “makes or is ” (signature, locution, fingerprint, iris and other biometric factors).

In this way, the certificate is never physically in the hands of the owner, but the owner accesses it when required. Strong authentication, without the need to install any certificates, or software, in the device from which the process is performed.

In addition to the high degree of security and the guarantees offered, many entities and companies choose to integrate Viafirma Fortress with other mobility and signature solutions for the added value they bring to their customers.

Therefore, the benefits obtained by companies and institutions can be grouped in the following points:

  • It is universal. That is, it can be used from any device (mobile, tablet, etc.) and any operating system (iOS, Android, Windows). In addition, it can be done from any place and country. The only requirement is internet access.
  • It is very intuitive. It is accessible to everybody.
  • Presents lower CTO. It saves time, costs and resources needed for other signing procedures. On the other hand, the absence of paper represents an advance in environmental matters.
  • Greater security. The certificate is accessed through robust double factor authentication, where only the owner of the certificate can access it and sign with it.
  • It is independent. Whatever technology you use. Compatibility with your company’s e-Business solutions and easy integration.

The signature of any document or authentication becomes easy, convenient and fast. At Viafirma, the “fortress signature” is available throughout its suite, but it also the integration with any e-Business application by our customers is also possible.
