IACCM Technology Briefing Series - e-signatures and secure communications

Secure and verifiable communications are becoming a major issue for today's global business. Pressures to streamline process often appear risky and may threaten accepted views of 'adequate controls'. This conservatism has resulted in contract rules and procedures frequently lagging behind the way that business is conducted. For example, even though eSignatures are gaining worldwide legal acceptance, adoption in most jurisdictions has been slow. At the same time, buyers are pushing for much wider 'entirety of contract' provisions that potentially include both formal and informal communications.There is a clear need for new technologies that support improved approaches to eSignature and email/distribution, encryption and retention for confidential documents and contracts. In this one-hour 'IACCM Technology Briefing' Zafar Khan, Chairman & CEO of RPost, discusses with Tim Cummins, CEO of IACCM, the capabilities and acceptance levels for current technology and how this appears likely to develop in the months ahead.Our expertZafar Khan - Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, RPostKhan's company, RPost, was the winner of the World Mail Award for Security and received top score in the breadth and depth of e-signature services, compliance with industry/country regulations and technical standards, and enterprise scalability categories of The Forrester Wave: E-Signatures, Q2 2013 report.Khan has been identified by Citytech Magazine as among the top 100 global technology leaders and has been in the technology field for more than 10 years.  Khan has invented three U.S. patents and holds a Master of Business Administration degree from The Wharton School at The University of Pennsylvania.
