Recap
A platform to sign documents electronically using Archethic’s biometric authentication and transaction chain.
More Detailed Description
Traditional digital signatures rely on password-protected private keys or third-party certification authorities. This solution removes those dependencies by:
- Storing cryptographic proofs on Archethic’s blockchain.
- Requiring biometric confirmation to validate the signer’s identity.
- Maintaining an immutable record of signatures for legal or audit purposes.
Key Questions
- Integration with Existing Tools
- How to interface with standard document formats like PDF or Word docs?
- Are there APIs or plugins to embed signing functionality in other platforms?
- Legal Validity
- Which jurisdictions recognize biometric-backed blockchain signatures as valid?
- What regulatory compliance steps are necessary (eIDAS, etc.)?
- Security
- How do we handle signature revocation or multi-signatory workflows?
- Can we ensure the system remains fraud-proof if biometric data is compromised?
- User Experience
- How do signers confirm their identity with minimal friction?
- Will there be a fallback method if biometric checks fail?
