Digital Signature Market Overview:
As the digital world advances at an unprecedented rate, traditional practices are being continuously replaced by digital solutions. Digital signatures are a type of electronic signature used to verify the authenticity and integrity of digital documents or messages. A digital signature is developed using a mathematical algorithm that generates a unique code named a digital signature attached to the document or message. This unique code can only be generated by the owner of the signature and cannot be forged or tampered with by anyone else. Digital signatures are commonly used in electronic transactions, such as e-commerce, online banking, and electronic contracts. Digital signatures provide a secure and efficient way to authenticate the identity of users involved in the transaction and ensure the integrity of the documents or messages.
Digital signatures offer a range of benefits for users. Digital signatures authenticate the user's identity in the transaction, ensuring that the transaction is legitimate. Digital signatures ensure the transaction's security, making it difficult for hackers or other parties to intercept or tamper with the transaction. In addition, digital signatures offer a secure, efficient, and cost-effective way of conducting various transactions while ensuring that the transaction is authentic and secure.
Digital signatures are increasingly used in e-commerce transactions, where speed and security are crucial, and are recognized as a legally binding method of signing documents in many countries. Digital signatures are also widely used to provide proof of authenticity, data integrity and nonrepudiation of communications and transactions conducted over the Internet. There are three different classes of digital signature certificates (DSCs) as follows: Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3. Class 1 signatures provide a basic level of security and are used in environments with a low risk of data compromise. Class 2 digital signatures are used in environments with moderate data compromise risks and consequences.

We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
