By incorporating digital signature capturing into the age-old process of signing documents, companies can save front- and back-office costs in labor, printing, scanning, faxing, mailing of paper originals and long-term storage. You can now email the document for immediate receipt by the client, partner, coworker or employee. They can sign it instantly electronically, with a tablet or smartphone, no matter where they are. Field agents can also get documents signed in person, in real time, by presenting a document to a client on a tablet.

SIGNificant Signature Capture allows any document to be completed and signed
electronically with your handwritten signature. The signature captured is forensically
identifiable and can be authenticated based on the recorded parameters against a pre-
enrolled signature profile. Clients, partners, coworkers, or employees can instantly sign a
document electronically with a tablet or smartphone no matter where they are, just as
they are used to doing with their handwritten signature on paper. Field agents can also get
documents signed in person, in real time, by presenting a document to a client on a tablet.
Visibility and control over your e-sign process
SIGNificant offers much more than e-signing of documents. Enterprises can control and govern all steps in the
completion and signing process of contracts, including positioning signature fields, filling out forms, adding
annotations, accessing the camera for scanning attachments, and much more.
Ensure the highest levels of enforceability and signer authentication
When a signature is captured locally on the device, it is safely embedded using an asynchronous public key encryption
into and uniquely bound to the target PDF document. Copy/paste attacks can thus be easily detected. Furthermore, a
digital signature is applied, which turns the document into a sealed PDF, making undetectable changes of document
content impossible. Moreover, if online connection is available, you even can authenticate signers in real-time against
their pre-enrolled biometrical signature profile through dynamic signature verification – thus ensuring that only
authorized users can sign certain documents.

SIGNificant Architecture Overview
Sign on the Dotted Screen
Signing a document with your handwritten signature is socially well accepted around the world. Bringing it into the
digital world has the big advantage of avoiding costly media breaches while conforming to already well-established
user habits and business processes.
Natural signing experience like pen on paper
Signing with pressure-sensitive "digital pen" in particular provides a writing experience like signing on paper, as pen
input is differentiated from touch operations. This greatly enhances the user experience compared to a passive stylus
or signing with your finger. Some pressure-sensitive "digital pen" also deliver native palm resistance, which further
improves the signing experience and the quality of the captured signature.
More than just the image – 5D biometrical paramaters
A signature captured with SIGNificant is much more than just an electronic
image of a digitized signature. We record – forensically identifiably – the
handwritten signature of a person using all available parameters, such as
acceleration, speed, and rhythm. These parameters are unique to every
individual and cannot be reproduced by a forger. A pressure-sensitive "digital
pen" also registers, in addition to a very high recording accuracy, the writing
pressure, which allows for the best possible signature verification.
Real-time authentication for highest process security
In addition to a deep manual signature verification that a forensic expert can do anytime
afterwards using the SIGNificant PenAnalyst software, xyzmo also provides a signature
verification that authenticates a signature against a pre-enrolled signature profile
database in real-time. As the system can use all recorded biometric data for its signature

verification, the false acceptence/rejection rates it achieves are in the low one-digit percentage range. Its self-
learning algorithm enabels the system to stay up to date with changing signing habits over time. In addition, it has
the advantage of lacking the invasive nature of other biometrical authentication methods such as fingerprint, face, or
retina scan, all of which do not allow the simple switch to a different biometric signature in case the data is stolen.
Bullet Proof Through High Security
xyzmo provides highest level of security to avoid biometrically signed documents can be faked in any way.
Biometric encryption
The biometrical signature data is encrypted asymmetrically using a public key directly while recording. Reading the
signature for verification purposes is only possible through decrypting it with the corresponding private key, which
can either be stored offline, e.g. at a notary, or when required online in e.g. a High-Security Module (HSM).
Document binding
The biometric signature is always securely bound to a unique document. Its fingerprint
(hash) is encrypted together with the biometrical signature data making copy/paste
attacks impossible.
Integrity protection
Once a handwritten signature is captured, a digital signature is also applied, which
turns the document into a sealed PDF, making undetectable changes of the document
content impossible.
Standard Compliancy and Compatibility
Full-conformance PDF and PDF/A e-signature standard
Signed documents can be viewed by any standard PDF viewer. Documents are sealed with a digital signature
compliant to the ISO standards for PDF. Thus, the validity of the digital signature can easily be validated with Adobe
Reader and many other PDF viewers. Moreover, the digital signature can show the GPS coordinates of the location
where the signature was provided.
ISO/IEC 19794-7:2007 standard for biometric signature exchange
Biometric signatures can be exported according to the ISO/IEC 19794-7:2007 standard for biometric signature
exchange, providing full vendor independence of the signed documents.
Compatible with major signature capturing devices
SIGNificant is compatible with signature capturing devices from all major vendors, including dedicated signature pads.
Straightforward Integration
Front-end – App
Either use the standard SIGNificant App or integrate the app’s functionality and UI views into your own app through
the SIGNificant SDK. Moreover, you can easily adapt the default color schema of the app to your corporate design.

Back-end – SIGNificant Server
The integration into the document workflow is done comfortably on the server side. The user simply receives a link to
access the PDF on the server, which is cached locally for offline access, and only image previews are transferred to
the app. Thus, the signed original document is, for security reasons, only available on the server and not
automatically copied and duplicated to the mobile device. All PDF manipulations are always performed in the secure
data center environment, giving you full control over the access and distribution of the signed original document.
On-premises or cloud based
SIGNificant Server is available as an on-premises installation or provided as a cloud-based solution.
Enhance Your Productivity
Offline processing
Mobile use cases often involve situations where online connectivity simply is not
possible. This is why SIGNificant allows you to work with your documents and form
templates fully offline, enabling you to complete the data capture and signing process
with customers without any server connectivity. You even can manage multiple
documents and form templates offline. Necessary server synchronization (e.g. to seal
the document and to put it back into the document archive) automatically occur in the
background when Internet connectivity is available, without a user interaction needed.
Work with documents like on paper
Browse and review multipage documents before you edit and sign them. Edit
documents directly or zoom in with guestures whenever necessary.
Govern all activities
Define all steps in the signing process, including the ability to position signature fields,
and define the necessary attachments and group form fields into areas, which makes it easier to guide the signer
through the document in the right order. Specify compulsory or optional tasks, and define policies to enable or forbid
certain actions on or with the document, such as making annotations or saving, e-mailing, and printing documents.
Add annotations and attachments
Enter text or add attachments such as photos from the built-in camera of your device to the document.
Fill out and sign PDF forms
Fill in your form fields directly from within the SIGNificant application and allow automated forms data extraction of
signed documents. Form data to be edited can also be prefilled from external applications.
Support for cloud storage
Open a document from other applications that also work with documents – including your inbox, Dropbox, Evernote,
Box(.net) and others – and sign them via SIGNificant on the go. When you are finished, you can store and share
documents via your cloud storage, including Dropbox, Evernote, Google Docs (Drive) and Box.net.
