Certificates on the card

Certificates stored on a smart card are the gold standard of digital security. This is the original approach to signing. At NFQES, we also offer this “old school” solution as robust security through certified QSCD cards. In our case, we use Gemalto IDPrime Smart Card QSCD devices, to which your certificates for electronic signature will be bound. Our customers reach for certificates on cards mainly if they want to use them for access to physical devices without the Internet, such as logging into a laptop and the like. Since these cards are certified QSCD devices, they can also be used for qualified electronic signatures.

What certificates can be purchased and used with the QSCD card?

Electronic
certificates

Electronic certificate for

electronic authentication

Advanced electronic certificates

What does the qscd card special?

It does not contain any identification data of the given natural person (such as: Name, Surname, National ID number, etc.), but the QSCD card is tied to, for example, the ID of the ID card. Another advantage is that when signing with a QSCD card, you do not have to enter the PIN and BOK again for each signed document, but you only need to enter PIN once when signing several documents and it will sign all the documents for you at once. You also have the option to upload multiple certificates at once and sign with different levels of certificates. All certificates for electronic signature are stored on the QSCD card and you can use them at any time.

How does it work?

QSCD Card

Why is it good to have certificates on a QSCD card?

Higher
security

Your certificates are protected by a unique PIN. If you enter the wrong PIN 3 times, the card will be blocked.

Legal and legally valid value

In many countries, QSCD cards have legal value and are approved for use in electronic transactions, including electronic signatures on legally important documents.

Universality

QSCD cards are compatible with all card readers for signing.

Long
life

After the expiration of the given certificate, which is on the QSCD card, another one can be uploaded, which will be valid, for example, for another year.

Trusted issuer

QSCD cards are issued only through companies that are legally verified, so it cannot happen that a QSCD card is issued by a company that is not verified as a certification authority.

Data
protection

All your personal data is visible on the ID card. Not on QSCD. The saved data can only be accessed with login data.

Read interesting facts from the world of online security.

We consider the terms “improved electronic signature” and “advanced electronic signature” interchangeable and refer to the same thing, namely an advanced electronic signature that meets the requirements set forth in the European regulation eIDAS (Regulation No. 910/2014).
Simple, advanced and qualified electronic signatures differ mainly in the legal certainty they offer. The higher the level of legal certainty, the more suitable a particular level of electronic signature is for securing transactions of higher value. Of course, there is also a difference in the process of verifying the identity of a person or entity when issuing a certificate for a given signature.
Most of us use ID card signing exclusively for communication with the authorities. However, electronic signing has a much wider application and you will appreciate it not only in the business sphere, but also in private transactions. And even with convenient signing without an ID card.
