Lithuania's Public Sector chooses E-Lock's digital signature solution for e-document exchange |
|
Frontier Technologies Corporation (E-Lock) today announced that its flagship product E-Lock ProSigner would be used by Lithuania's Public Sector for electronically signing documents. |
|
Lithuania's Information Society Development
Committee (IVPK) was responsible for the
project. E-Lock's partner in Lithuania
- Santa Monica Networks - was instrumental
and played a key role in liaising with
IVPK, participating in a public tender
and eventually delivering the E-Lock solution
to public sector institutions via IVPK. |
|
The first phase of the project commenced
in 2003 with a pilot project using E-Lock
ProSigner. Five public institutions began
to exchange E-documents. They were the
Government Chancellery, the Transport
Ministry, the Economics Ministry, the
Department of Archives and the Information
Society Development Committee. In the
second phase (end of 2004), approximately
20 Lithuanian public institutions will
be using E-signature services.
|
|
"IVPK, as a project manager of e-signature
and e-documents project in Lithuanian
Public Sector was looking for an easy
to use solution, implementing open standards
(PKCS#7) and with a free verification
utility for digital signed documents,
which could be easily integrated in to
office systems" said Gytis Nemanis,
from the Information Society Development
Committee (IVPK). |
|
“As our Lithuanian Public Sector shifts
towards e-Government and starts digital
signing of documents, it is important
that the electronic signature solution
addresses the key issues of authentication,
data integrity and non-repudiation” said
Tauras Talandis, Technical Center Manager
of Santa Monica Networks, Lithuania. “E-Lock’s
solution is simple to use for end users
and powerful behind the scenes, which
provides an ideal mix of user friendliness
combined with strong backend security.” |
|
“We are pleased that IVPK has chosen
E-Lock ProSigner for its state wide signature
requirements,” said Dr. Nimish Shah, VP
Business Development for E-Lock. “Over
the past year, E-Lock Solutions - which
are compliant with the EU digital signature
law - have witnessed a rapid deployment
across government, financial and other
organizations in Europe. IVPK’s selection
of our product attests to the quality
and reliability of our digital signature
solution.” |
