Why governments work with Ascertia to deliver
e-Government projects
We are committed to providing compliant, high-security digital signatures and verifiable audit trails. With the government’s long and complex approval processes it’s important to be able to identify and verify signers and their intent long after they signed.
Our interoperability with other vendors, technologies and applications ensure a smooth digital transformation project and the use of digital signatures over paper processes supports sustainability and green government initiatives.
Through the use of e-seals and local signing, government departments and e-government schemes can generate cost savings and accelerate approval whilst providing key digital services for citizens and delivering digital trust for government organisations.

“The results we’ve seen since we partnered with Ascertia are nothing less than quite amazing, because what we did together from 2014 up until (2019) was actually release an infrastructure for digital identities on the Swedish market and have it certified by the Swedish Government Now, given the sizes of our companies and what we’ve delivered to the market, I think that’s quite amazing.”
