Remote Signing Pioneers LuxTrust and Cryptomathic Deepen Partnership

Remote Signing Pioneers LuxTrust and Cryptomathic Deepen Partnership

More than a decade ago, Cryptomathic and LuxTrust, then a newly formed trust service provider (TSP), decided to invest in the development of cloud-based electronic signing technology, in anticipation of future demand from Luxembourg’s digital ecosystem. At the time, local signing devices, in the form of smart cards and USB tokens, were dominant and the only widely available means of establishing the highest level of electronic signing assurance.

Is non-repudiation really non-repudiable with digital signatures?

Is non-repudiation really non-repudiable with digital signatures?

Non-repudiation is a legal concept that is widely used in information security. It refers to any service, which provides proof of the origin of data and the integrity of the data. In other words, non-repudiation makes it very difficult to successfully deny who/where a message came from as well as the authenticity of that message.
