Differential will integrate core authentication, certification and encryption technologies from its partners in the company's current FileDrive and Extranet Creator products. In addition, the partnerships will help provide a base for Differential's first Digital Receipt solutions, which will be available in Spring 1999. Differential's DRI initiative will allow corporations to track a broad class of enterprise transactions in a non-forgeable, auditable and notarized format. DRI will provide irrefutable proof that an electronic transaction has taken place by verifying the identity of the sender, placing a tamper-resistant seal on the message and documenting the content and form of the transaction.
Companies are eager to become part of the electronic commerce boom.
However, when businesses begin conducting complex online transactions, they sometimes forget that, unlike paper transactions, the Web does not inherently offer legal security or guarantee commitment. Differential's implementation of VeriSign Secure Server IDs provides the security for building the legal infrastructure necessary for the growth of e-commerce among large businesses.
