ESAS – Strong Authentication Software
ESAS is a strong authentication software which increases security during access to services and IT systems. It supplies a simple, cheap and secure new channel to authenticate the user with certainty, enabling them to check and “sign/authorize” documents, online contracts, payments, operating profiles, etc…
ESAS is an identity management system developed by E-time, as well as supporting Advanced Electronic Signature processes it also supports Qualified Electronic Signature mechanisms and signatures with Remote signature mechanisms. It does not need token devices. ESAS is a support instrument for Advanced Electronic Signature which puts an end to IT fraud which has increased considerably in recent years. A strong authentication service used by banks and companies to control access to their platforms.
ESAS is available in two versions:
- BASIC VERSION: for the authentication of clients and the authorization of any documents/transactions with the sending of an OTP (One Time Password) by SMS or Push notification.
- FULL VERSION: Also includes the management of the client App which communicates with the RSA encrypted server with asymmetric keys. The App features a stand-alone generator in the case of no network. In the “Full” version ESAS is an Advanced Electronic Signature instrument which gives legal validity to signed documents.
Both versions are available in two formulas:
- PRODUCT LICENSE: license for in-house installation.
- SERVICE FORMULA: E-time offers its own servers to provide the authentication service and Advanced Electronic Signature. A Cloud service which is structured with a “process history” (in the case of controversy, E-time represents a third party guarantor and is able to provide the entire historical process).
