Abstract: The primary design goals of the current system are (as a matter of example, but not limited to the following, by any means): to enable Organizations to send documents to Readers ensuring that only those authorized Readers can “read” the contents; to be a low cost, easy to use system, with zero to minimum installation requirements at the Companies and Readers end; to provide the service primarily as an ASP service with the ability to be easily deployed and maintained into an Enterprise environment; to enable Companies to send documents anywhere in the world and receive the same level of protection and comfort regardless of location of Reader; to provide a centrally managed, but distributed, Reader authentication and authorization method/process for all Companies to use in any country; to provide a central NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) Registry for any size company; and to provide a secure guaranteed on-line signing process for business contracts and agreements.
