Audit Reports
AlphaTrust e-Sign™ is designed to accomplish four critical tasks that are "best practices" processes for electronically signing documents:
- Proper presentation of the document according to legal and regulatory requirements.
- Proper collection of the electronic signature according to legal and regulatory requirements.
- Auditing of the transaction - who signed it; when they viewed it, signed it, or were emailed a copy; what IP address was used, etc.
- Establishing a chain of custody over the document such that it may be proven during a future dispute or compliance audit that the audit trail (shown in the Document Audit Report) was recorded and that the document has not been tampered with or altered in any way since signing.
Below is a sample Audit Report document that is provided:
