Go Green and Digitise your Paper Processes

Secure2sign is an advanced digital signing tool which uses digital certificates to allow you to sign any Microsoft Word document or form. It also allows you to control access to files. We have tested the use of the program for file access control, but not digital signing.

Microsoft seems to have embraced secure2sign and appears to have entered into an alliance. You can visit http://www.avocosecure.com/html_pages/secure2sign/secure2sign_gogreen.htm to download a trial and read more about the Microsoft and Secure2Sign partnership.

Secure2Sign can show WORD document has not been altered since it was signed (Proof of Content.); or
that the WORD document exists unaltered since its time-stamp (Proof of Existance).

Here is what Secure2sign says about themselves:

Secure2sign allows you to use electronic versions of documentation through legal application of digital signatures. This means that communication and collaboration on such documents is swifter, as electronic methods of transference can be used. This opens up the ability to create platforms of document sharing that can be used to completely replace paper based systems, thus removing the need for printing and postage and the associated overhead of these activities. Not only does this reduce the time to completion of any given process but it also reduces the environmental load, as the need for hard copy paper is removed, and the carbon footprint associated with postage/printing is eliminated.
