Electronic signature authentication method and system

摘要

A system and method for facilitating authentication of an electronic signature includes receiving electronic signature data associated with an electronic signature of a signer, the electronic signature data comprising at least biometric data associated with at least one of the electronic signature and the signer. A signature icon is generated by using at least the received electronic signature data, wherein the signature icon comprises a coded visual representation of the electronic signature data. The signature icon is provided on a document signed by the signer by way of the electronic signature such that the signature icon is exhibited on the document at least when the document is printed or when the document is displayed on a display screen associated with a computing device or machine, wherein the signature icon facilitates authenticating the electronic signature of the signer.

1. A method for facilitating authentication of an electronic signature, the method including:
receiving electronic signature data associated with an electronic signature of a signer, the electronic signature data comprising at least biometric data associated with at least one of the electronic signature and the signer; generating a signature icon by using at least the received electronic signature data, wherein the signature icon comprises a coded visual representation of the electronic signature data including the biometric data, wherein the signature icon is comprised of a machine readable matrix or 2-dimensional code that is readable by a machine; and providing the signature icon on a document signed by the signer by way of the electronic signature such that the signature icon is exhibited on the document at least when the document is printed or when the document is displayed on a display screen associated with a computing device or machine, wherein the signature icon facilitates authenticating the electronic signature of the signer, wherein, when read by the machine, the signature icon enables the machine to derive at least the biometric data associated with the electronic signature.
