Signer's guide

DigiCert​​®​​ Document Trust Manager allows you to sign documents using trusted and compliant digital signatures.

Before you can start signing, you must create a valid digital ID in DigiCert ONE by verifying your identity and setting up two-factor authentication (2FA).

1. Create your DigiCert ONE digital ID

A digital signature is an e-signature supported by a digital ID. The digital identity (digital ID) is a digital certificate that confirms that DigiCert​​®​​ has verified that the individual listed on the certificate is authentic.

To create DigiCert ONE digital ID:

  1. Set up your DigiCert ONE account

    Create a DigiCert ONE account to access DigiCert​​®​​ Document Trust Manager.

  2. Verify your identity

    Verify your identity remotely using a specified mobile application or in person with an authorized professional. Review common questions about Remote identity verification.

  3. Set up two-factor authentication (2FA)

    Download a mobile authenticator application to confirm your identity every time you sign a document using your DigiCert ONE digital ID. Specific authenticator applications are required depending on where you’re located.

2. Sign a document

Use a signing application such as true-Sign V, Adobe Acrobat Sign, DocuSign, or SigningHub to sign your document.

Note

Review the details of each document if you’re applying your e-signature on more than one document using a single authorization.
