Glossary
Session: a set of documents kept together like a folder or envelope. Used to organize the documents that need to be signed or displayed to the signer(s). The session allows the employee to have the signing party view and sign documents either in person or remotely.
Remote Signer: When a signer is not present in branch. The session is “delivered” to them using their email address so they can sign documents wherever they are.
Two-factor Authentication: Two-factor authentication is an extra layer of security designed to ensure that the intended signer is the only person who can access and sign documents. Different methods are available: one-time passwords, text codes via smartphones, KBA, and Government ID.
KBA: Knowledge-based Authentication. This type of authentication requires that a remote signer answer questions about themselves in order to prove their identity.
Signing Ceremony: The activity of the consumer signing the documents in the session. Can take place in person, remotely, or a combination of both.
