The Cloud Signature Consortium (CSC) is a standard protocol for cloud-based digital signatures that supports web and mobile applications and complies with the most demanding electronic signature regulations in the world.
The goal is to provide a common technical specification that will make solutions interoperable and suitable for uniform adoption in the global market, and to meet the highest level requirements of the European Union’s regulation on Identification and Trust Services (eIDAS).
