whitepaper The Digital Signature Paradox2007-07-07 ProofSpace
  Paradox is a term often associated with Hollywood's fanciful time travel; however in the real world a time paradox does in fact exist. The system clock is the immediate source of time for any computer; and is the sole source for a time stamp determining when a document was created, modified and printed; or more interestingly when a digital signature was generated.   
whitepaper Electronic Signature Assurance and the Digital Chain of Evidence2007-07-07 ProofSpace
  This white paper defines the life cycle of an electronically signed record and describes the equivalence requirements throughout its retention period. A risk management framework is presented that defines a generic Digital Chain of Evidence that guides the architectural choices available in deploying an electronic signature solution.   
whitepaper Adobe Solutions for the SAFE Standard2007-05-01 Adobe Systems
  SAFE has helped to significantly advance the legal, business, and technical outlook for electronic transactions worldwide. By standardizing on Adobe PDF, SAFE has also taken a significant step toward promoting the ubiquity of electronically signed documents. In turn, Adobe's built-in support for the SAFE standards demonstrates the flexibility and capability of Acrobat and Reader. Acrobat and Reader require minimal customization and interoperate directly with the standards-based PKI infrastructure of SAFE. Perhaps most important, this means that PDF signatures with Acrobat and Reader work more like traditional paper signatures than any other solution.   
whitepaper Mobile Carriers and Credit Card Business: A Brief Study-Focusing on KDDI THE CARD2007-01-13 01:00:33 Research On Asia (ROA) Group
  This white paper introduces credit card services offered by two mobile carriers in Japan, NTT DoCoMo and KDDI au, mainly focusing on the service by KDDI au.

Recognizing the credit card business as a promising income source in the matured market, the mobile carriers in Japan have entered the segment, creating new business models.

Similar development might be expected in Korea in the future. However there remains some issues to be resolved between the mobile carriers and card companies in terms of personal financial information. 		  
whitepaper Hitachi Develops the Basic Technology for Authentication of Digital Research Notebooks2006-09-12 Hitachi
  The technology developed is an integration of digital pen technology which automatically creates an electronic record of handwritten notes and digital signature technology which authenticates the originality of an entry, enabling the authentication of ideas and experimental data. This technology is expected to find wide application as basic technology in next-generation management systems for research notebooks in the current trend towards fortification of intellectual property strategies and authentication of research originality in both industrial and academic research.   
whitepaper The Principles of Electronic Agreement Legal Admissibility2006-09-09 ProofSpace
  There are five principles that contribute directly to the legal admissibility of an electronic agreement: the reliability of an electronic signature, the reliability of the act of signing, the state of mind of the individual at the time of signature, the requirement to capture and retain material information in a way that can be verified, and finally the need to for an agreement process with reliability commensurate with the legal significance of the act and the risk of the transaction.   
whitepaper Java XML Digital Signatures2006-09-27 01:00:21 Sun Microsystems
  Extensible Markup Language (XML) technology is now an integral part of web-based business applications. These applications require a fundamentally sound and secure infrastructure to meet the security requirements of confidentiality, endpoint authentication, message integrity, and nonrepudiation. XML signature, XML encryption, XML Key Management Specification (XKMS), Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), and XML Access Control Markup Language (XACML) are the XML security standards that define XML vocabularies and processing rules to meet these security requirements. This paper provides an introduction to XML digital signatures and to the Java XML Digital Signatures APIs (JSR 105).   
whitepaper Lightweight Email Signatures2006-06-16 IBM
  This paper presents Lightweight Email Signatures (LES), a simple cryptographic architecture for authenticating email. LES is an extension of DKIM, the recent IETF e ort to standardize domain-based email signatures. LES shares DKIM's ease of deployment: they both use the DNS to distribute a single public key for each domain. Importantly, LES supports common uses of email that DKIM jeopardizes: multiple email personalities firewalled ISPs, incoming-only email forwarding services, and other common uses that often require sending email via a thirdparty SMTP server. In addition, LES does not require DKIM's implied intra-domain mechanism for authenticating users when they send email. LES provides these features using identity-based signatures.

whitepaper "Going Up, Going Down!" - A Review of Quarter 2/20062006-09-15 10:47:40 MessageLabs
  Welcome to the June Edition of the MessageLabs Intelligence monthly report. This report provides the latest threat trends for June 2006, as well as a quarterly retrospective, to keep you informed regarding the ongoing fight against viruses, spam and other unwelcome content.   
whitepaper Reduce the Risk of Costly Data Breaches: Three Pillars of Data Protection2006-06-01 Iron Mountain
  There are numerous regulations that govern the protection of private, personal and confidential data regardless of whether the data resides on a secure mainframe computer, desktop PC or mobile device such as a laptop PC. Legislative requirements to disclose lost data incidents are expensive and can negatively affect a corporation's reputation.

Iron Mountain Digital advocates these Three Pillars of Data Protection to serve as a guide for customers establishing a PC security program:
  • Policy Management and Control
  • Threat Monitoring and Response
  • Data Backup and Restoration
This paper provides an overview of PC encryption, the elements beyond encryption that are necessary for a complete data protection solution, and how Iron Mountain Digital's Data Defense and Connected Backup/PC solutions address the Three of Pillars of Data Protection.
