Hi @malthe_vinter
One thing I am curious about is verfication of identity. One of the main applications for signatures is of course contracts, and contracts require that parties are properly identified and signatures are not forged.
I appreciate you going through the work flow of showing us all how the signatures are used, but I would like to know, how are you ensuring that signatures are authenticated? Also, what about witnessing? Many important documents that I have to sign require a witness, is there a solution in the works to fit within the legal systems of most countries so that agreements that have to be signed are executed properly?
Thanks!
@jeducious thanks for the interest. Regarding your question of identity verification, GoatSign requires access to the email address provided during the signature request. This ensures that the signer's identity is validated through the email. Currently we have additional security features in our roadmap to make GoatSign more secure.
Further, GoatSign assigns a unique signatureID to each page within the document, and the final PDF document is also signed with a certificate. This cryptographic approach ensures the document's integrity and prevents unauthorized modifications.
Regarding witnessing, we understand its significance in various legal contexts. While GoatSign does not yet offer this feature, we are exploring options to incorporate this functionality in upcoming versions of GoatSign.

@malthe_vinter thanks for the reply, are there any issues you've had brought to your attention from doing customer interviews around tying identity to email? I'm not an email expert, but, a question I am keen to ask is how would a document signed by Goatsign stand in court if the question of who signed it was brought up?
Are you guys familiar with how courts assess evidence of identity and how does an email address hold?
