Products and services

Electronic certificates serve to prove identities in electronic data traffic. They are not only used for ex officio execution, but also play an important role in secure electronic business transactions. Qualified signatures based on A-Trust certificates are legally equivalent to handwritten signatures. Digital signatures are based on a cryptographic process, which allows the authenticity and integrity of a document to be proven.
