electronic signature

Users must enter username and/or password {electronic signature} before committing data to database. A field holds a unique code based on user ID and password. Electronic signatures include the user name, date, time, role of signer (review, approval, authorship, or ownership), and digital signature. Digital signatures are generated using biometrics or cryptography.

Saving files is the typical example of an event that requires an electronic signature. Creating an electronic signature displays the role to be applied and requires entry of the user name and password; if multiple signatures are required in one user session, later signatures require only a password. Electronic signatures are only assigned to verified individuals. Electronic signatures cannot be assigned to someone else. Persons with electronic signatures certify that their electronic signatures are to be legally equivalent to handwritten signatures.
