Key benefits

Both individual and organization validated

Both your verified personal name and your organization’s verified legal name appear in every signature. The highest assurance document signing tier: two identities, cryptographically bound.

Highest non-repudiation

Maximum non-repudiation: cryptographically proves both organizational authority and individual accountability on every signed document. The evidentiary standard regulators, courts, and auditors prefer.

Tamper-evident

Any modification to the signed document after signing breaks the cryptographic signature: Adobe Acrobat, Reader, and Office automatically detect and alert recipients to tampering.

eSigner compatible

eSigner-compatible: sign from any device via eSigner Express web app or the CSC API without a hardware token. Ideal for mobile signing and travelling executives.

Who is it for?

Partners and principals

Partners and principals at law firms, accountancy firms, and consultancies: communications and signed documents carry both personal professional identity and firm identity.

Executives and board members

C-suite executives and board members signing governance documents, M&A agreements, board resolutions, 10-K filings, and any document where executive personal authority must be cryptographically bound to corporate authority.

Regulated professionals

Regulated professionals in financial services, healthcare, and legal sectors: where dual-validated signatures satisfy professional conduct rules, licensing requirements, and fiduciary duty evidence standards.

Government officials

Government officials signing official correspondence and regulatory documents with both verified personal identity and agency identity: the digital equivalent of personal-plus-seal signing authority.

Frequently asked questions

How is IV+OV different from OV?

OV validates only the organization. IV+OV validates both the individual's identity and the organization: ensuring both personal accountability and organizational affiliation are provable.

What documentation is required?

Government-issued photo ID for the individual, plus business registration documentation for the organization. Both must be validated before the certificate is issued.

Can IV+OV certificates be enrolled in eSigner eSealing?

No: eSealing is designed for OV certificates used in automated, bulk signing workflows. IV+OV is intended for named individual signers.
