Pearl eSign is built on India's PKI infrastructure with end-to-end encryption, immutable audit trails, and full compliance with IT Act 2000 — giving organizations the legal certainty and security they need.
Digital signatures created using Pearl eSign are legally valid under the Information Technology Act 2000 and its Amendment Act 2008. These are admissible as evidence in Indian courts and accepted by all regulatory authorities.
Pearl eSign uses digital certificates issued by Certifying Authorities (CAs) licensed by the Controller of Certifying Authorities (CCA) under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).
Full compliance with Information Technology Act 2000 and Amendment Act 2008
Uses certificates from CCA-licensed Certifying Authorities only
UIDAI-authorized Aadhaar eSign under MeitY notification
Compliant with RBI, SEBI, and IRDAI digital signature requirements
Digital signatures accepted by Ministry of Corporate Affairs portals
E-invoicing and GST filing with DSC accepted by GSTN portal
All documents are encrypted using AES-256 encryption during transmission and at rest. No document is ever accessible in plaintext without authorization. RSA-2048 or higher for digital certificate operations.
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) ensures every digital signature is uniquely tied to the signer's identity through cryptographic key pairs. Certificates are issued only by CCA-licensed CAs — guaranteeing authenticity.
Granular RBAC ensures only authorized personnel can access, upload, sign, and manage documents. Multi-level authorization hierarchies with department-wise isolation and admin controls.
Every action on the platform — upload, view, sign, download — is logged in an immutable audit trail with timestamp, user identity, IP address, device, and geographic data. Cannot be altered or deleted.
Any modification to a signed PDF — even a single character — immediately invalidates the digital signature. Standard PDF readers (Adobe, Foxit) visually indicate signature validity and tampering detection.
Enterprise-grade server infrastructure with firewalls, intrusion detection, DDoS protection, regular security audits, and penetration testing. 99.9%+ uptime SLA with disaster recovery.
Pearl eSign's audit trail captures every event in the document lifecycle, creating an irrefutable record that satisfies regulatory requirements, supports dispute resolution, and demonstrates compliance.
Every action recorded with UTC and IST timestamps with millisecond precision
IP address, city, and country logged for every signing and access event
DSC certificate serial, Aadhaar eSign reference, or user credentials tied to every signature
SHA-256 hash of the signed document recorded — proving document integrity at time of signing
Fully managed cloud deployment. No infrastructure investment. Instant setup, automatic updates, and 99.9% uptime SLA. Best for organizations wanting rapid deployment.
Complete on-premise deployment within your organization's data center. Full data sovereignty, air-gapped environments supported. Ideal for government and high-security organizations.
Combine on-premise signing engines with cloud workflow management. Signing happens locally with tokens while audit trails and management happen in the cloud.
