Digital Signature Solution within General Dynamics' Product Portfolio Enables Customers with Digital Signing Capabilities

General Dynamics Information Technology (IT), a division of General Dynamics Corporation, has added standard digital signatures (http://www.arx.com/products/cosign_faq.php) to its solutions portfolio via its partnership with ARX, Inc. The ARX CoSign digital signature solution enables users to affordably complete their investments in automating enterprise business processes, including management of electronic records and documents.

A CoSign digital signature binds a signer's identity, intent and document integrity into a record within a business process. Any attempt to tamper with a signed document or record invalidates the signature. The digital signature technique is a U.S. Federal standard for electronic signatures. CoSign is supported by mainstream business applications making digital signatures convenient to use and preventing vendor gridlock. A CoSign signature provides two significant benefits: (1) when a document is signed, signers can no longer deny their signature and (2) tampering with a signed document instantly invalidates the signature.

CoSign is a standard PKI-driven (http://www.arx.com/documents/pki-solution-for-electronic-signatures.php) solution that has been certified by the U.S. National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) at FIPS 140-2 Level 3, and it meets NIST and Federal requirements for a digital signature solution.

"ARX recognizes General Dynamics IT's reputation for deploying scalable IT solutions that have a clearly measurable return on investment. CoSign is a perfect complement given its affordable and easy-to-use digital signatures capabilities," explained John Marchioni, VP Business Development, ARX. "When people sign with CoSign, they not only get security, speed and convenience, they also lower their operational costs while maintaining the proper controls."
