How are DSCs digitally secured
Technically speaking, DSC Token is a legal electronic signature registered under the Second Schedule of the Information Technology Act, 2000. The documents that are ‘eSigned’ using DSC Tokens are tamper proof. Under the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, the e-signed documents get a number of favourable legal presumptions. The digital signatures are valid for about 1 to 2 years and need to be reissued before the expiry period.
A Digital Signature Certificate is essential for securing digital transactions and making them tamper-proof. They have several features that make them digitally secure —
1. When the user signs a document, a unique hash is created. This is encrypted with the user’s private key and creates the digital signature.
- The signed document goes to the receiver and the system generates a new hash. The receiver decrypts the signature by using public key. As the keys match with each other, the authenticity of the document is validated.
- DSC ensures there are no unauthorised modifications in the document. In case there is any tempering with the signature or a signed document, the DSC will become invalid.
- Digital signing certificate also ensures that the signer cannot refuse to have signed the document.
- The private encryption key of the DSC is safely secured in USB token. One can transfer data between different devices swiftly without any risk to its security, as and when required. DSC safeguards the authenticity of the document and protects sensitive data by building trust in digital way of communications.
