Case Study: Swisscom Trust Services integrates legally valid remote e-signatures with Apryse iText

Swisscom Trust Services powers legally valid eSignatures with Apryse for over 5 years

Swisscom Trust Services, a leading Swiss provider of trust services, needed to integrate legally binding electronic signatures that comply with both EU (eIDAS) and Swiss (ZertES) regulations into their remote Signing Service. Their challenge was to provide partners with a secure, scalable, and easy-to-use method for digitally signing PDF documents like contracts and invoices. They chose to use iText by Apryse to power the PDF signing engine for this solution.

Using iText by Apryse, Swisscom developed a solution that programmatically adds authenticated digital signatures to PDFs. The Apryse product provided a flexible abstraction layer, allowing Swisscom's partners to generate signed PDFs without needing deep knowledge of PDF specifications. The result is a highly scalable and secure service that has been successfully integrated into Swisscom's workflows for over five years, also forming the backbone of their other digital identity services like Mobile ID.
