EDS in the interdepartmental electronic document

Blame the electronic document based on the majority of corporate information systems is an electronic document, the possibility that their scale is impressive. The introduction of electronic document (hereinafter ED) not only simplifies the storage, retrieval and access to documents, but also allows you to quickly exchange documents via dedicated communication channels, to fully control the entire document organization at every stage of creation or enforcement of any of the information communication business. The modern corporate enterprise information system is impossible without such a tool to minimize costs, as electronic documents. Despite the fact that the rules of ED legally enshrined in the Civil Code and the Federal Law of 10.01.2002 N 1, "On electronic digital signature" inter-agency electronic document is just getting its momentum. According to the Act, the electronic digital signature - an attribute of an electronic document used for the protection of the electronic document from tampering, resulting cryptographic transformation of data using a private key digital signature and enables to identify the owner of a signature key certificate and establish the absence of distortion of information in electronic document. Digital signature (digital signature) - it is an original user ID to read the message you send or certification, is an electronic key that protects the information from the document fraud and misrepresentation. To a digital document, signed by EDS, was recognized equally with a paper of his counterpart, had rigidly restrict the range of applied technologies implementation of electronic document at the legislative level. A fundamental requirement for digital signatures is the certification, including for the convenience of checking and controlling bodies. The use of EDS in the interdepartmental electronic document management certificate allows an individual to create their own digital signature for electronic documents, so that only he had the right to identify the key signature is issued certifying cents. To electronic document was legally binding, should provide the signing parties to the exchange of information agreements. This situation indicates the need for an objective presence in the market agents that will not be interested parties to an exchange, but only to provide services of the certification center. Acting on a given point in time the law permits until the signing of electronic documents without a contract and third parties. Role of Certification Authority certification centers - a specialized organization responsible for generating the key certificate, they do not participate in the electronic document management system, but without them it is unthinkable. The approximate scheme of inter-agency electronic document is as follows: 1. The Company enters into a contract with the operator of the system is connected to it, thus recognizing the Agreement on the application of digital signature and enforceable documents in the system. 2.Kompaniya proceed to exchange of documents in electronic format with all participants in the system, regardless of their geographical location. Problems of EDS Electronic document with a digital signature has the same legal force as its printed version, only in the case when the signature key certificate is valid. For documents that require the presence in their particulars of the date and time, has developed an advanced digital signature, consistent with international recommendations RFC 3161 "Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp Protocol (TSP)". These signs shall bear a special "stamp", confirming the evidence of the certificate is valid at the time of signing. The procedure for investment in essential elements of an electronic document a certificate chain to a trusted CA and OCSP-responses provides an electronic signature is legally effective. Such documents are provided with time stamp, which is a confirmation of the certificate is valid at the time of signature verification. To send such documents in the archives is necessary to ensure the integrity of storage in the system through the application of advanced and reliable digital technologies simultaneously. Prospects for the use of EDS in the interdepartmental electronic document objective processes of globalization dictate the conditions of modern business, requiring him to ever greater efficiency in decision-making, so far unresolved, and as a consequence of the most acute is the problem of harmonization of standards, certification and the establishment of a unified system of certification authorities. Creating a common space with EDS certifying centers that have a single center, allowing organizations to continue to use the services of the certification authorities, with whom they worked before. Given the lack of a single center certification centers have different each time a new way to solve the problem of mutual adaptation of certificates, as they are based on different technologies. A large number of certification centers makes this conversion quite problematic. In such a situation can not do without government intervention and international organizations. In the case of the adoption of common standards of the modern corporation would be ready to move to electronic document as soon as a single information space will become a reality.
