As governments and businesses are shifting to digital modes of service delivery, ensuring trust in electronic transactions is crucial. Electronic signatures (e-signatures) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) play a foundational role in securing digital interactions, providing authentication, integrity, and legal recognition for transactions in the digital world. As such, they are an essential part of a country’s digital public infrastructure (DPI).
This webinar will provide an overview of the key policy, legal, and technical considerations for implementing high-trust e-signatures and PKI as DPI. The specific objectives are as follows:
Clarify the role of PKI and e-signatures in securing digital transactions
Provide practical insights into the operational implementation of trust services
Showcase country experiences, governance models, and real-world deployment
Facilitate dialogue on cross-border recognition and next steps for global trust frameworks
