USE-CASE
On-prem support for signing service
Organisations face the challenge of integrating cloud-based signing services while ensuring sensitive documents remain within their own infrastructure. Adapting to a system that communicates seamlessly with these external services, yet conducts the actual signing process on-premises, is essential for maintaining security and control over confidential information.
Problem
Integrating on-premise signing with cloud-based services
Integrating with a cloud-based signing service, as specified by DIGG ("fristående underskriftstjänst"), presents a unique set of requirements for your systems. To effectively utilise such a service, your system must be capable of communicating with the cloud platform through a specific, predefined protocol. However, a critical aspect of this process involves the actual signing of the PDF documents, which cannot be performed by the cloud service. This is due to the necessity of keeping the documents within the organisation's on-premises infrastructure to maintain security and control. Thus, while leveraging the advantages of a cloud-based signing service, there's a crucial need to ensure that the final signature insertion on the PDFs happens locally, on-premises. This dual requirement of cloud communication and on-premises signing execution poses a technical and procedural challenge, requiring a sophisticated solution that balances external service integration with internal document security.
Answer
