Mobile Signature - Signature from the mobile phone
There are only a few things that cannot be accomplished virtually via the internet today. One of them is the personal signature, for which the only alternative today is the National Identity Card, which requires you to buy additional devices and install additional software. As of now, only a few citizens have chosen this alternative.
In collaboration with the Institut für Angewandte Informationsverarbeitung und Kommunikationstechnologie ((IAIK - Institute for Applied Information Processing and Communication Technology) of the Technical University Graz, evolaris has developed a prototype for mobile signatures, wherein the mobile phone acts as a full-fledged replacement of the National Identity Card. Possessing a mobile telephone is therefore sufficient to generate a signature via the internet, which includes all the security criteria of a personal signature.
