Digital Signature

Office of controller of certifying authorities, Government of India, insisted to not to issue Class-2 and Class 3 DSCs (Digital Signature Certificate) without token. Class 1 DSC can be issued as soft copy (without token) only after getting an undertaking from the subscriber. All these measures are being implemented as safety measures. This may increase the cost of DSC.
  •  Issuance of SOFT TOKEN ceases with immediate effect.
  • All DSC download effective 07th Dec 2013 can only be downloaded onto “FIPS CERTIFIED TOKEN”(HARD TOKEN ONLY)
