The pros of online notarization vs e-sign?
E-sign is a apart of daily life it seems. E-Signing and online notarization and/or IPEN are different tools with different purposes and levels of security. E-sign is a good way to take care of your business with more expedience than traditional mail and delivery, or driving somewhere to meet those whom you are signing documents with/for. It has an absolute distinct place in life.
Today, let's talk about the differences in security with e-sign vs online notarization.
E-Signing allows users to electronically sign documents, which can be legally binding. However, e-Signing doesn't provide additional identity verification. That is where a Notary comes in. E-signatures are valid if the signers clearly intend to sign the document, which can be done by typing, clicking an Accept button, or drawing a signature.
Vs.
Online Notarization and/or IPEN, which provides legal verification and authentication of documents, and also verifies the identity of the signer(s) through a notary. Online notarization is a good option for high-value or sensitive agreements where identity verification is important. In-person electronic notarization can provide similar levels of security. However, online notarization (RoN), can be done between multiple parties in different locations, with a fairly quick turn around time and additional security measure with the identity checks required.
All of these are valid. It's just a matter of what level of security you are looking for when it comes to having a verified identity of a signer on a document, and if/and your documents calls for a notary in the first place.
