Pleasant Hill, CA - 14 September, 2006
Algorithmic Research (ARX), a leading worldwide provider of electronic signatures and data security solutions today announced its reentry into the German Market at the DMS EXPO Europe's leading trade fair and conference for electronic information, content and document management.
CoSign is a standards-based electronic signature solution that enables users to easily and securely replace handwritten signatures, sealing electronic documents with a simple click of the mouse. Companies can use CoSign to electronically sign documents and forms created with standard applications such as Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat, AutoCAD and others.
Expedite Business Processes
"Signing & sealing electronic documents with CoSign will immediately expedite business processes, reduce costs, increase security and help organizations comply with regulations," says Gadi Aharoni, CEO, ARX. CoSign electronic signatures are based on standard PKI technology, guaranteeing signer authenticity, data integrity and the non-repudiation of electronic documents.
"Digital signatures allow companies to complete their move from paper documents to electronic," says Klaus Breitenbach, CEO at Applied Security GmbH, ARX’s German reseller. He adds that German law accepts digital signatures as legally binding, replacing the need for handwritten signatures. Many organizations are using this technology to complete their workflow migration to an electronic format, saving them money and enhancing their business processes.
Current ARX clients in Germany include Schering (pharmaceutical), Deutsche Bank (a leading global financial services provider), Aareal Bank (formerly DE PFA) (an international specialist property bank), Bundesbruckerei (the Federal Printing House of Germany ) and Kraftfahrt Bundesamt (The German Federal Bureau of Motor Vehicles and Drivers).
