Presentation of the K.Stamp® timestamping solution from Keynectis

Add proof of the legal value of your documents and transactions

Nowadays, we exchange and create an increasing number of electronic documents and transactions. But how can we guarantee that a document existed at a given time and date? Timestamping with K.Stamp® offers:

  • Recognized, legal proof of the existence of a document or transaction
  • A service commitment based on a reliable date and time guaranteed by Keynectis
  • A proven solution used for several years running by demanding clients in terms of performance and reliability

Timestamping: when should it be used?

In addition to applying electronic signatures to documents or transactions to ensure their integrity and provide evidence of their link to the signer, timestamping provides a way to guarantee the existence of a document or transaction on a given date and time.

Examples and use cases

Timestamping examples and use cases:

  • Companies:
    • Timestamping of Office 2010 documents signed online
    • Timestamping of documents that have been digitized for the purpose of storing or archiving
    • Traceability of actions within an IT system
    • Traceability of document exchanges
  • Finance:
    • Timestamping of financial transactions
    • Timestamping of the technical IT server logs
  • Gaming: Timestamping of game draws (e.g. lottery) in real time
  • B2C: Timestamping of contracts signed online
  • Intellectual property: Timestamping of creative works such as photographs, manuscripts prior to publication, etc.

The K.Stamp® solution from Keynectis already meets these types of needs.

Timestamping as a response to specific needs

When timestamping is used, there is always an underlying need to prove the existence of specific digital content at a given time.

In other words, timestamping is used in response to the following types of needs:

  • Need for protection against future problems: in the event of a dispute, you can prove a date and time as being associated with specific digital content (photograph, manuscript, working document, computer log, bid, and so on).
  • Indisputable proof: the timestamp token is a sealed element that can be verified for n years after it is issued.
  • A legal context stipulating the conditions for timestamp token issuance: how accurate are the tokens issued, in terms of time/date?
  • Need for high-caliber performance: because the notion of time is intrinsically linked to the creation of a timestamp token, the called system must respond to requests immediately.

The K.Stamp® solution from Keynectis was designed to provide a response to all of these needs.
