Section 5 of the IT Act gives legal recognition to digital signatures based on asymmetric cryptosystems. Each Digital Signature is enabled using a Digital Signature Certificate and contains a unique private and public key pair that serves as the identity of an individual.
As with a handwritten signature, a signer must show clear intent to sign an agreement electronically. For example, signers can show intention by using a mouse to draw their signature, typing their name, or clicking an Accept button that is clearly labeled.
This legislation aimed to modernize the use of electronic signatures and records in business and consumer transactions in the United States and internationally. The act created a legal framework for electronic signatures and records, giving them the same legal standing as traditional, on-paper signatures.
Certain documents, including wills, codicils, testamentary trusts, divorce and adoption papers, some court orders, and docHubd contracts, cannot typically be signed electronically.
The Federal Act on Electronic Signatures provides for a simplified recognition procedure for providers that have been recognised abroad in accordance with requirements that are equivalent to Swiss regulations.
