märksõna: digital signature

eIDAS (electronic IDentification, Authentication and trust Services) is the regulation on e-identification and e-transactions effective in the European Union, which is aimed at simplification of the use of cross-border e-services through harmonised standards and operating principles.

Upon electronic use of an ID-card, setup related errors may occur with the browser. To avoid problems, we recommend doing an automated check-up of the signing plugin in the e-service and display to the user as precisely a formulated error message as possible.

Several signing plugins have been developed for different operating systems and browsers: components and sample applications.

In order to make it easier to add signing support to web applications, we recommend using a JavaScript library with a unified API that allows different plugins to be used in a similar way (independently of the operating system and the browser).

In Estonia, the term “digital signature” (i.e. digi-signature, digital signing, etc.) refers only to a signature that is legally valid and legally equivalent to a handwritten signature.

In Estonia, the BDOC format and its two subformats are used for digital signatures, which can be recognised by .bdoc and .asice file extensions.

In order to use mobile-ID, you only need your smartphone and mobile-ID PIN codes. Today almost all larger e-services have mobile-ID support, providing the option to log in with an ID-card, and mobile-ID works on a computer, a tablet as well as a mobile phone.

We recommend using an e-seal instead of mass signing with the ID card

Digital signatures given with Lithuanian mobile-ID can be conveniently verified via DIgiDoc4.
