Electronic signature and intranet security

Hi,
I find the 9.0 version of Adobe Acrobat professonal really annoying. I am creating a lot of PDF-documents which are to be presented on my company's Intranet pages. What is really disturbing is that I have to electronically sign all the PDFs - otherwise when opening a PDF document via a link from another PDF document on our intranet the user gets this pop-up question "are you sure this information comes from a trusted source ...etc" due to the security level set for the www. In earlier versions this phenomen did not exist. It is disturbing for the users to get all these pop-up messages when navigating through our intranet which we as a whole consider safe. It causes me a LOT of extra work having to sign and save all documents an extra time every time I make a document change. There must be a way to turn off this ******** or I'm throwing away my Acrobat 9.0 license (anyone who wants to exchange it with an older version.
One more thing - is there an easy way to - one and for all - set that I want all the PDFs I create to be saved without showing all the stuff like the menu row and the tools list when the users opens the PDF. Every time I make a change to a PDF I have to set these conditions over and over again.... not really very user friendly!!!!

Adobe X Std - Electronic Signatures and Flattening Document

We are experimenting with Electronic signatures using Adobe X std. Once a signature is added to a document, we want to flatten the document so that the signature and all other annotations can not be changed. I have found the javascript code needed to flatten documents and it works fine for all annotations, but not for the signatures. After adding a signature and choosing to flatten the document, I get the error:
NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method.
Doc.flattenPages:266:App FlattenPages:Exec
I don't know what security settings or other changes are needed to prevent the error. Help would be greatly appreciated!

Validating signatures is the normal and most important thing about them. That is how they work. This is fundamental stuff which you must explain to the users of the document as surely as they need to know how to use a pen for paper signatures.
Consider: if you come upon a PDF that is signed by your boss, how do you know it is signed by your boss? Because the signature has his name on it? Hardly the proof needed to fire a man or release a million dollars.
But if your boss sent his public key to you before, you can check the signature in the file against the public key, and this is absolute proof. Validating has to be done every single time, otherwise it is like sending a paper document with "trust me, this one's fine" written on a sticky note.
However, a group of people can share signatures and arrange that validation is automatic when files are opened. Don't know the details.

I have adobe Acrobat - I am trying to do a electronic signature and its is asking for a passwork

I am trying to sign a document that is protected from an university. It is asking me for a password to put in my electronic signature. I don't have that password and it isn't the one for my account

Hi Estella,
It sounds like the university has disallowed signing in this particular document, unless you have Document Permissions password. You will have to ask the person who created the document what the password is, so that you can sign the document.
I wish I had a different answer for you--but there's no way around that without the document password.
Best,
Sara

Digital Signatures and Security Policies

Is there a way to combine a digital signature and a Security Policy. We have a need to digitally sign a document, but not allow that signature to be removed and to not allow any further editing of the document?

Hello Francesco,
I want to generate a digital signature (PKCS#7,XML) using SAP SSF API as explained in
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/4f/65c3b32107964996a56e4165077e24/content.htm and in Amol Joshi's reply in
Digital Signatures and Document Encryption api
so my question is From which PI/XI version and its SPS this SAP SSF LIBRARY is supported ?
Kind Regards,

Electronic Signatures in Smartforms

Hi,
Is it possible to get electonic signatures into forms?

Michelle,
Look at the help docs that Uday pointed you to. The beauty of the iCommand applet with a display template is the modal dialog prompts that it provides to have one or two levels of user re-authorization BEFORE running your SQL INSERT query template. The user prompt(s) prevents someone from walking up to a workstation and potentially doing a task they were not supposed to do (shared workstation), and for critical situations having another user or supervisor confirm with their credentials too.
This is essentially the 'electronic signature' and you'll see this information in the Logs - who did what and when. If you need to do additional logic with the request you can extend the effort through a BLS transaction and auto-binding in the XacuteConnector (some of the info in the help talks about this).

Electronic Signatures in xMII

Hi all,
I've been asked to estimate my time on something I have no idea on how to accomplish the task. So if you know anything about xMII and electronic signatures - please respond.
Does anyone have experience with implementing electronic signatures in MII?
Was there anything that needed to be done? How long did it take to implement?
Thank you,
Michelle

Can I apply electronic signatures to secured PDF's and hide them?

Hello,
I currently have our product datasheets on secured PDF's (approximately 40,000 of them). We post these datasheets directly onto our website.
What I am looking to do is to have 3 people electronically sign-off on each of these datasheets, before they are posted on our website -- however I do not want these signatures visible to the public.
Thus, can I use electronic signatures with secured PDF's? And can I hide these signatures?
Also, I have watched some of Adobe's videos as it pertains to group editing. Do you have any recommendations for more resources regarding this? How would I make sure that "Jim" doesn't sign something with "John"'s name?

When they cannot be opened I forget what it says. That's not much help I know. File not found or something like that. I can open an attachment from an e-mail see it, then save it to my computer and e-mail it to someone and they won't be able to read it. I will go back and check on it and sure enough I can't open it again. Frustrating.

Message level security: difference digital signature and certificate

Hi everybody,
could anybody please explain the difference between <b>digital signature</b> and <b>certificate</b>?
Thans
Regards Mario

Mario,
A digital signature is an electronic signature that can be used to authenticate the identity of the sender of a message or the signer of a document, and possibly to ensure that the original content of the message or document that has been sent is unchanged. Digital signatures are easily transportable, cannot be imitated by someone else, and can be automatically time-stamped. The ability to ensure that the original signed message arrived means that the sender cannot easily repudiate it later.
A digital signature can be used with any kind of message, whether it is encrypted or not, simply so that the receiver can be sure of the sender's identity and that the message arrived intact. A digital certificate contains the digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that anyone can verify that the certificate is real.
where as
A digital certificate is an electronic "credit card" that establishes your credentials when doing business or other transactions on the Web. It is issued by a certification authority (CA). It contains your name, a serial number, expiration dates, a copy of the certificate holder's public key (used for encrypting messages and digital signatures), and the digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that a recipient can verify that the certificate is real. Some digital certificates conform to a standard, X.509. Digital certificates can be kept in registries so that authenticating users can look up other users' public keys.
hope it helps u.

Web service security: XML signatures and encryption

Hi users -
I am trying to figure out how to implement XML signatures and encryption for my web service. We are only on AS ABAP 7.0, SP 11 - we do not have SOAMANAGER yet. Yet all documentation I can find on configuring encryption and signatures, references SOAMANAGER.
Does anyone know of a guide anywhere on implementing XML signatures and encryption for web services pre-SOAMANAGER? It's listed as supported - but I can't find a thing! Your help is much appreciated!
Thanks so much!
Abby

Hi Users -
I found the answer to this (although it wasn't one I liked.) It doesn't appear that encryption with XML signatures is supported prior to SP 14.
I found this information at
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/6d19c8ee-0c01-0010-619d-92af980436d7

Hope that saves somebody else some time...
Thanks!

Electronic Signature/Validate Local Userid and Password

Hi
I have a requirement that during processing of an application a user should be prompted to enter userid/password to perform an "electronic signature". I need to validate this userid/password against the local passwords on the laptop. Does anyone know if there are API's that could be used to perform this validation?
Thank you
John

Connecting to an Electronic Signature Pad

Hello,
We have just purchased Acrobat 9.0 Pro for our business and are trying to get it to work with an electronic signature pad. Both the ignature pad and Acrobat are installed and working: I was told by multiple different personel that Acrobat would work with an electronic signature pad. However, I am not able to get the epad and acrobat to talk to each other. I have tried going to Edit->Preferences->Security (Advanced Settings) -> Create -> Signature Default drop-dpwn menu, but it is not allowing me to connect. The ePad is supposed to be compatilbe with Acrobat, and I was, as mentioned above, told that Acrobat would work with an ePad. I am not opposed to returning the pad IF I have to and purchasing one through Adobe, but as far as I know they do not sell hardware. Help appreciated!

Did Adobe tell you the pad was compatible or somebody else. Personally, I'd recommend you drop the electronic pad idea and switch to digital signatures.

Electronic Signatures / SAP Authorizations

Default functionality of the electronic signature is that it validates the SAP MII User. We, on the other hand, need to validate the SAP User. One thing comes to mind is to have ABAP Security in place, and all users must have an SAP account. What happens if we decide to use the UME and when we decide to do the electronic signature it checks the SAP user account?

Hi Isabelle,
Thanks for your patience in understanding my question.
My primary worry is if i use this exit to have electronic signatures in 4.0b and i know this functionality (Electronic signatures) is standard in latest versions, what will happen to the electronic signature data that i create until i upgrade.
The electronic signature data is the user id , date and time associated with a notification. I plan to store this in a custom table.
I will appreciate , if you can share with me your analysis.
Thanks
