Accredited to issue Advanced Electronic Signatures
VoiceVault is the first and only voice verification provider to be
certified and accredited to issue Advanced Electronic Signatures (voice digital
certificates). This certification enables VoiceVault to support payment
transactions with 'speak on the dotted line', setting up direct debits and
secure access to confidential data.
The legal framework for Advance Digital Signatures was agreed by the European
Parliament and Council when it adopted Directive 1999/93/EC - an EU wide
framework for electronic signatures. Since then, individual member states of
the EU have implemented legislation that gives legal recognition to electronic
signatures.
The EU directive sets out two forms of electronic signatures:
'Electronic Signatures' that are attached to or logically associated with other
electronic data and which serve as a method of authentication (also referred to
as a digital certificate).
'Advanced Electronic Signature' which means an Electronic Signature that meets
the following requirements:
-
It is uniquely linked to the signatory
-
Is capable of identifying the signatory
-
It is created using means that the signatory can maintain under his / her sole
control; and
-
It is linked to the data to which it relates in such a manner that any
subsequent change of the data is detectable.
This certification, together with VoiceVault's ISO 27001 rating
demonstrates the quality of the system and the most stringent operating
procedures and secure environment.
