'KSignTSA
(Time Stamp Authority)' will record the present time
data on specific information to approve such existence
of the corresponding information at selected time.'KSignTSA'
issues tokens to approve the point of time, provides
signature and security related libraries, handles requests
to approve the point of time and manages data for issued
timestamp tokens. |

As the e-business
become popular and widely used, the need for proving
the exact time when a transaction has made become essential
importance. for example, the time and data of a transaction
has made, who has made the transaction, what was the
content of the transaction. Although digital signature
is providing user authentication and integrity for e-business
transactions, it just simply does not have function
to prove the exact time and date a transaction made.
Proving the time and date a transaction took place is
the essential matters for online stock trade, online
tax payment, online bidding, etc where the point of
time for transaction means critical. Time stamping (process
of proving the time and date of transaction made) on
the data with digital signature will prevent the claims
of the false time and date. Currently, International
Organization for Standardization has established RFC3131
for timestamp.
KSignTSA has developed under deploying the international
standard to ensure interoperability and reliability. |
