Groundbreaking Event from Offices in Japan, Taiwan
SAN JOSE, CA, September 25, 2000
- Entegrity Solutions® Corporation, a
leader in Trust Solutions for business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce, and
Signonline, Inc., a leading application service provider of on-line, legally
enforceable electronic signatures and electronic dynamic document storage
and retrieval, today announced the signing of Taiwan’s first legally binding
digital contract. The contract was digitally signed today between Entegrity
Solutions, in Tokyo, and Power Information Security, in Taiwan. In the
contract, the two companies have agreed that Power Information Security,
the first and only Total Security Solution Provider in Taiwan, will distribute
the Trust Solutions of Entegrity Solutions to the Taiwan market.
This event relied on Signonline’s applications service provider (ASP)
services to enable safe transfer of the contract over the World Wide Web
via a Portable Document Format (PDF) file while ensuring the integrity
of the document. The Entegrity Trust Services Platform™ is used to integrate
Signonline’s applications to global trusted infrastructures for enablement
of such groundbreaking events.
The signed document was then archived in Signonline's SAFE (Secure
Accessible File Environment) technology service, which allows companies
to store, access and manage their digital contracts in a secure environment.
"Governments and judicial systems around the world are formally accepting
digital signatures as legally binding. Entegrity is honored to partner
with Power Info Sec in Taiwan in this revolutionary step for global e-commerce,"
said Bob Frank, vice president of Asia-Pacific for Entegrity Solutions.
"We expect most countries will rapidly accept digital signatures as legally
binding and Entegrity looks forward to enabling this trusted e-commerce
worldwide."
“We have identified the potential market of total security solution services
for companies and government agencies in Taiwan and in Asia, with demands
of various natures and magnitudes,” said Louis H. Pao, vice president
of Power Information Security Corp. “Introducing Entegrity Trust Solutions
into the Taiwanese market is only our first step in embarking on the B2B
