<p>An integrated electronic document management system and method is disclosed for generating, storing, retrieving, handling, tracking, transmitting, encrypting, decrypting and using electronic documents in a network or online environment. When generating a document, a template and question and answer file are communicated to the user's browser corresponding to a user-selected document type. Answers to the questions are input directly into the document-in-progress as they are entered by the user. An answer file is then sent to a server to generate the electronic document. The electronic document may be securely stored in an electronic safe deposit box. Activity with an electronic safe deposit box is tracked, and automatic email notices are periodically sent to users of the computer network. The network further facilitates the issuance of a private and public key to users associated with a unique alphanumeric pass-phrase allowing the user to encrypt, decrypt and digitally sign electronic documents within the computer network.</p> |
