Reliable and Innovative Digital Signatures for Organizations

Biometric signatures include a variety of methods to verify person’s identity using unique physical or behavioural traits such as fingerprints, facial recognition, voice recognition and graphometric analysis of writing movements.

Graphometric signature is a specific technology that captures dynamic data from handwritten signatures, such as pen tilt angles, pressure and accelerations.

Although it may not be technically accurate to apply the term “biometric signature” to a graphometric signature, Elpako uses the term because of its easy recognition and clarity.

It is important to note that Elpako’s biometric signature is, in fact, a writing motion analysis that captures graphometric data. This allows a more effective delivery of this technology to the users and to ensure its clarity.

Electronic signature is a legally valid means of signing and electronic identification of a legal or natural person governed by the laws of the Republic of Lithuania. Documents signed with an electronic signature bear the same legal standing as paper documents signed in the traditional (handwritten) manner.

It is widely used for signing various electronic documents (letters, contracts), connecting to electronic government gateways, banks or electronic service systems of other institutions.

The legal regulation of all electronic signatures, electronic seals and timestamps is laid down in the Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market (hereinafter referred to as the eIDAS Regulation).

The legal regulation of eIDAS in Lithuania is also regulated by the Law on Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic Transactions, which regulates the legal effect of electronic signature, electronic seal, electronic timestamp and trust services, obligations of trust service providers and users, terms of and procedure for suspension and revocation of qualified certificates for electronic signature, electronic seal or certificates for website authentication, and supervision of trust service providers.

Qualified electronic signatures are considered to be the ultimate security tool.

Only official providers on the EU trust services list can issue a qualified electronic signature certificate. A document signed with a qualified e-signature has the same legal standing as a hand-signed document. The regulation and legislation regulating this signature is the uniform across the EU, while compliance at national level is supervised and enforced by each EU country independently.

Elpako’s qualified electronic signature ensures the highest data security. This electronic signature is fully compliant with the trust measures listed in the European Union’s list of trust service providers. The security of the signature is also guaranteed by a surety bond issued by an insurance company.
