Digital Signatures - Pilot
• Our analysis of the requirements shows that transactions that can benefit from a digital signature can be categorized into 3 types:
– Business to Government:• Business representative signs /certifies and submits documents to state agencies /
departments
– Government to Government & Government to Business:• 2.1 State employees sign and certify documents• 2.2 Data exchange• 2.3 Authentication for web services• 2.4 Signing inter/ intra agency forms• 2.5 State employees sign and submit documents to businesses and vendors
– Individual to Government • On line forms and applications: where Individuals need to sign and submit the forms
– Category 1: Low confidence in the Identity of the person signing the document.– Category 2: High confidence in the Identity of the person signing the document.
• Phase 1 of the project will focus on Transaction type 1 and Transaction type 2.1.

Description of solution for the Pilot
• A digital signature solution has two components:
– A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) based Digital certificate: Managed by a CA (certificate authority) that performs the following tasks:
• Identity verification of the applicant and issuing of certificates• Generating the physical certificate• Managing the certificate life cycle
– Signature interface – A solution that allows a person to apply signatures to the documents
• A Web service, client based or a combination of two
• Digital Certificate for the pilot– The pilot will be conducted using Identrust http://identrust.com/ as the CA – Identrust is a certificate provider and operates under the GSA ACES (Access
Certificates for Electronic Services) program.
• Signature Interface for Pilot– There are many options for the signature interface
• For this pilot, we will be using ADOBE standard and other third party utilities.

Digital Signatures - Status
• VEAP signed a MOU with Identrust in August to allow State Agencies to use digital certificates issued by Identrust– Virginia web pages (DMME and VDOT) on the ACES / IdenTrust web site – IdenTrust in eVA
• A pilot will be conducted with DMME, VDOT and WWRC to evaluate and fine-tune the processes – Procurement and distribution of certificates – Training of employees and vendors – Use of digital signatures
• DMME and VDOT will start using ‘e-signatures’ for some of their processes as early as next month.
• Once the pilot is successful and the kinks are ironed out, detailed instructions will be provided to other Agencies on how to adopt the process.
