e-signatures or digital signatures? ... they aren't identical
at its basics digital signatures are a process based on asymmetric
cryptography for authenticating a message or document hasn't been
tampered with (possibly in transit).
e-signatures tend to involve an electronic environment where there has
been some process that demonstrates human intent with respect to
agreeing and/or approving the meaning of some document or transaction
(i.e. trying to approach the concept and meaning of a physical,
manual, human signature).
there are a number of instances where you may have digital signatures
being used in authentication protocols .... w/o any requirement that a
human has seen, read, understood, agrees, &/or approves the contents
of what was digitally signed. a lot of digitial signature technology
has to do with authentication ... and possibly little or nothing to
doing with agreeing and/or approving.
it is possible to have an e-signature infrastructure
..... demonstrating intent, agreement, and/or approval ... w/o
involving any digital signature technology.
there sometines has been confusion about the two possibly distinctly
different operations .... possibly because the term "digital
signature" includes the word "signature" ... even tho "digital
signature" can have absolutely nothing to do with traditional human
signature process.
