Digital Signature Extension

Let¡¦s face it. Transmitting AutoCAD® drawings over the Internet can be risky. Someone could unintentionally¡Xor even intentionally!¡Xalter your design data. With the Digital Signature Extension, you have the peace of mind that your electronic signature does what the ink signature does: validates the authenticity of your documents.

The Digital Signature Extension is available through the Autodesk Subscription Program. It provides a secure environment where digitally signed drawings can be verified for

  • Origin (confirming identity of the persons who sign drawings)
  • State (the drawings have not been changed)
  • Nonrepudiation (signers cannot claim they never signed drawings)
The Digital Signature Extension includes the Digital Signature Verifier, a small piece of software that lets your recipients who don¡¦t have the extension verify a digital signature. It also warns them that any unauthorized file changes will invalidate the digital signature. The Digital Signature Verifier is so compact, you can send it to project members as an e-mail attachment.
