ARX Announces the Launch of CoSign, a Revolutionary Electronic-Signature Application

The product, due to be released officially in Q3/02, offers a revolutionary method for creating PKI based electronic signatures. PKI (Public Key Infrastructure), a method used for electronic signature as well as other security applications, was introduced to the market more than 25 years ago. It is the only method that offers data-integrity, non-repudiation, and signer accountability in electronic-signature applications.

From its inception till today, PKI-based systems were considered to be complex to deploy, non-integrative, and very expensive. CoSign offers an innovative method that can reduce the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of electronic-signatures to as low as $10 per user.

CoSign achieves such low TCO by offering an integrative approach to PKI , and by offering a zero management solution, in which all the necessary management tasks are performed using market popular user-management tools such as Microsoft Active Directory. CoSign also uses a central secure repository of signing keys and certificates, which dramatically reduces the TCO associated with distributing and managing keys.

“With an increased demand for PKI based electronic signature applications, especially in the financial and e-health markets, and with the current global financial trends, we believe that CoSign is the answer for the large demand of cost-effective electronic signature applications”, says Motty Alon, Director of Marketing for ARX Ltd.

CoSign is ARX's, tamper-proof, easy to use, electronic-signature solution which delivers an innovative way for electronically signing documents, files, forms and transactions. Based on standard PKI technology, CoSign guarantees signer authenticity, data integrity, and non-repudiation of documents and transactions. With its unique centralized approach, built-in integration with the organization's existing User-Management System and extensive 3rd party application support, CoSign eliminates additional overhead costs.
