FAQ
Digital Signature Certificates (DSC) are the digital equivalent (that is an electronic format) of physical or paper certificates. Few examples of physical certificates are Drivers’ Licenses, Passports, or Membership Cards. Certificates serve as proof of identity of an individual for a certain purpose; for instance, a Driver’s License identifies someone who can legally drive in a particular country. Likewise, a Digital Certificate can be presented electronically to prove one’s identity, to access information or services on the Internet, or to sign certain documents digitally.
