Security

In an interconnected world, security underpins the trust and reliability of digital communications. Ensuring that your data, transactions, and interactions remain confidential and tamper-proof is pivotal to conducting business online. For Certificate Authorities (CAs), this means following strict protocols and safeguarding the entire certificate issuance process so that end users and organizations can operate in an environment free from the risks of fraud, impersonation, and cyberattacks.

emSign’s primary focus is to enable secure digital experiences by issuing high-assurance certificates. These certificates verify the identities of individuals, organizations, and even machines, ensuring that each entity is who it claims to be. eMudhra is committed to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance to meet the evolving needs of our clients. We are compliant with industry-leading frameworks, which include:

  • WebTrust for CAs (Certificate Authorities):

    The audit checks if the CA's operations meet the standards set forth in its Certificate Policy and Certification Practice Statement. This is crucial for ensuring the security of digital certificates, which are used for encrypting communications and verifying identities online.

  • ISO 9001 (Quality Management System):

    ISO 9001 is a globally recognized standard for managing quality in organizations. This helps organizations demonstrate their commitment to delivering high-quality products and services.

  • CMMI Maturity Level 5 (Continuous Improvement):

    This refers to a high level of organizational maturity where processes are continually improved based on data-driven insights. At Level 5, organizations use a quantitative approach to understand business performance and the variation in processes. This enables them to make informed decisions that lead to continuous enhancements in their operations.

  • SOC 2 Type II Compliant:

    SOC 2 Type II is an audit report that evaluates an organization's internal controls related to the AICPA Trust Service Criteria. These criteria cover five key areas: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of data. is important for service providers that handle sensitive data to demonstrate they maintain strong security and privacy practices.

  • GDPR Compliant (General Data Protection Regulation):

    GDPR compliance refers to an organization's adherence to the General Data Protection Regulation, a legal framework designed to protect personal data of individuals in the EU. Organizations must meet specific obligations regarding how they collect, store, and process personal data, ensuring data privacy and security.
