The obligation to use a qualified electronic seal has become a reality, especially for state organizations, with the end of the legislative delay in September 2018. Acquisition and operation of the on-premise sealing service is an effective way to deal with the legal requirements.
Do you need professional solutions to create qualified seals?
SEFIRA has prepared a solution that, in accordance with the eIDAS regulation, offers a qualified seal creation device (QSealCD) held by a sealing person to create a qualified seal.
The solution is based on the OBELISK Signer product, which provides the automatic creation of qualified electronic seals and is offered in three basic variants using a smart card or HSM.
