An electronically signed document is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties. An electronic signature (or ‘e-signature’) is an authentication method that allows individuals to sign documents electronically, as opposed to using traditional ink and paper methods. This type of digital signature is recognized and enforceable in most countries and is legally binding. Electronic signatures provide both convenience and security when it comes to completing agreements and other important documents – allowing businesses to create, manage and authenticate documents faster, easier and more securely than ever before.
