Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for enabling pictorial content to be added to a secure document. In an embodiment, a secure document tool receives a request, from an administrator of the secure document, to enable modification of a region of the secure document with an addition of pictorial content, the secure document configured to prevent modification of contents of the secure document by a signer, the secure document enabled to accept a signature on the secure document by the signer. The secure document tool receives, from the signer, a command to add pictorial content to the region, and responsively adds the pictorial content to the region. The secure document tool receives from the signer, a signature on the secure document, and responsively disables the secure document from accepting further modifications.

Abstract: A highlighting engine modifies a target document by identifying and highlighting a set of text passages. The highlighting engine receives a training set of data including documents that each include a set of highlighted text passages. The highlighting engine trains a machine learned model using the training set of data. The trained machine learned model, when applied to subsequent identified candidate sets of text passages within the target document, identifies the set of text passages to highlight. The highlighting engine modifies the target document with the highlighted set of text passages and provides the modified target document for display via an interface. The highlighted set of text passages enable a user to quickly read and understand the target document.

Abstract: An intended signatory receives an electronic signature request that includes instructions for accessing both an unsigned document and server functionality that enables the intended signatory to electronically sign the document. To gain such access, the intended signatory must pass username and password authentication, which serves as a first authentication factor. After the intended signatory is authenticated, he/she can access the unsigned document. However, once the intended signatory is initially authenticated, it can be assumed that his/her work session is subject to being misappropriated by an unauthorized user. Thus, when a command to apply an electronic signature to the document is invoked, the would-be signatory must pass keystroke biometrics authentication, which serves as a second authentication factor.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for efficiently obtaining biometric signatures for electronically signing digital documents. A digital document having a signature field is provided for display on a general computing device. An instruction to obtain a biometric signature from a mobile computing device is received on the general computing device. A remote signing request is sent to a remote server device. The request can include, among other things, an electronic contact address associated with the mobile computing device. Responsive to receiving the request, a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is generated, referencing a dynamic application for obtaining the biometric signature on the mobile computing device. The remote server device obtains the biometric signature via the dynamic application or an incoming electronic message from the mobile computing device via the electronic contact address.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for providing a business process over a network. A network connects several network nodes and a central repository. Each network node is associated with an organizational entity and represents a user, a service, or a computer application.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for providing a customized representation of a business process involving one or more organizational entities that are accessible through a network. A user interface that can display a customized representation of a business process is provided. User information, including user privileges associated with the business process, is stored in a central repository that is accessible through the network. A request to view the business process is received from a first user through the user interface. The user privileges for the first user are retrieved from the central repository. A customized representation of the business process is displayed with the user interface. The customized representation is in compliance with the retrieved user privileges for the first user.
