Case Study: Austrian Federal Computing Centre (BRZ) enables secure digital signatures for citizens with Nutrient

How the Austrian Government Uses PSPDFKit to Bring Digital Signatures to Everyone

The Austrian Federal Computing Centre (BRZ) needed a secure, simple way to let citizens digitally sign PDF documents in Austria’s Digitales Amt app, part of the oesterreich.gv.at initiative. To meet legal, technical, and user-experience requirements for government-grade electronic signatures, BRZ evaluated several options and chose Nutrient’s PDF SDK.

Nutrient implemented PAdES-based digital signatures with a custom signature appearance, including a new signatureOnly mode delivered quickly to match BRZ’s requirements. Nutrient also supported integration directly with its engineers through a kickoff session and follow-up support, helping launch the feature in the new app version and advancing Austria’s e-government services with legally binding digital signatures.
