Overview
A digital signature is legally binding and can be equivalent to an ink pen signature on paper contracts and other documents.
Unlike electronic signatures, digital signatures have a unique digital ID that identifies the signer's identity. Digital signatures can get information about whether the signature is trustworthy and whether the document has been modified after the signature, thereby ensuring the legal validity of the document.
