  • Signature and integrity of the signed file

    The document is checked to see whether it has been modified since it was signed.

  • Revocation status of the signing certificate

    The signed certificate is checked to see if it was issued by a competent authority and if it was valid and not revoked (invalidated) at the time it was signed.

  • Validity of the time stamp

    A signed time stamp (TSA; Time Stamping Authority) from a recognised provider can confirm the time the document was signed regardless of the computer’s system clock.

  • Authorised certificate for this document type

    You can check whether a document has been signed with an appropriate certificate for this purpose.
