Authentication Method for Document Signing

To enhance the security of the document signing process, Documill Leap includes an Authentication Method feature that requires signers to authenticate themselves before reviewing and signing a document. There are two available methods for authentication:

  • SMS Authentication

  • e-Identification

SMS Authentication

SMS Authentication is a method that enhances security by sending a one-time code to the signer's mobile phone via text message. The signer must enter this code to proceed with reviewing and signing the document. This method ensures that the person attempting to sign the document has access to the registered mobile phone.

A quota applies to the SMS Authentication feature. The quota counts the number of SMS Authentication activities, not individual text messages. One SMS Authentication activity may involve multiple text messages, such as resending the one-time code.

You can request an SMS Authentication quota for your organization by contacting us at support@documill.com.

e-Identification

e-Identification is a digital solution for verifying a signer's identity online. This method provides a high level of assurance and is legally recognized, ensuring that the signer is who they claim to be. In Documill Leap, this method allows signer to verify their identity using:

  • Finnish Bank IDs

  • Finnish Mobile Identity

  • Swedish BankID SE
