Signature API

The signature API inserts the biometric data and the typeface of the signature into PDF/A documents and links them to the document in a tamper-proof and theft-proof manner using HASH algorithms recommended by the BSI and asymmetric sealing. In conjunction with the current StepOver signature pads, this linking and encryption already takes place in the hardware of the pad and with the help of the signature API and the free device API, you can create your own applications for simple and advanced e-signatures. The signature API is an OCX component that can be integrated into your application. It is licensed per workstation.

The signature API is suitable for setting up a system for simple and advanced e-signatures.

- Double asymmetric sealing up to RSA 4096 bit
- Secure checksum generation, e.g. with SHA512
- Embedding of the typeface and biometric data in PDF/A documents
- Contact possibility to our developers
- PDF/A documents signed with the signature API are 100% compatible with PDF/A documents signed with eSignatureOffice and SimpleSigner
- Support of document display mode and signing in the document (valid for every StepOver signature pad with colour screen)
