Re: Signatures (manual or digital), was: End of faxing

Anything will be more secure thena a signature on a fax. It is to easy to paste a copy of a signature (either with glue or with a program) and send it by fax. Nobody will tell the difference in the fax.

Do you think that digital signatures will make any headway in the near future? Digital signatures provide all of the same services as manual signatures, that is non-repudiation, authentication and integrity. In some cases, it seems to me that digital signatures would be more secure than physical signatures.
