"Our clients like the authentication that Adobe Reader can provide with digitally-signed PDF files. With SecurSign, the server signs each report on-demand, and adds a customer-specific password as well.  It's exactly what they were asking for."

- Arthur F., Managing Partner

Encrypt, Digitally Sign and Verify Digital Signatures on PDF Documents

SecurSign 5 is a server-based application which encrypts, digitally signs and verifies digital signatures on PDF documents. SecurSign is designed to run in real time with other processes in an unattended environment to handle high-volume and on-demand production needs. SecurSign can also run in batch mode to encrypt, digitally sign or verify large collections of PDF documents.

Digital signatures allow organizations to distribute electronic documents without fear of tampering. Digital signatures placed by SecurSign are compatible with the Adobe® Acrobat® Digital Signature Mechanism; and, no additional software is required to open documents or verify signatures using Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader or other digital signature-aware PDF viewers. End-users with Adobe Reader or other digital signature-aware software can immediately detect whether or not a digitally-signed PDF file has been altered (verification).

SecurSign can encrypt PDF documents to restrict the end user’s ability to edit, copy or print with 256-bit AES encryption. Other security features in SecurSign 5 allow users to set passwords to control who may view, print, or modify a document, as well as higher level passwords that control who may change security settings.

SecurSign 5 produces ISO 32000-compliant PDF files and can perform optimization and cleanup routines,  prior to signing, reducing file size in most instances.

"When our department needed a digital signature application for releasing design drawings, we thought we'd have to spend a lot of money.

SecurSign adds the field and signs the drawing on the fly as it's checked out, and all in a couple of days of development time. It's been a great investment."

- John J., IT Manager
