I have a workflow that allows a customer (external of the tenant) to request a credit application in order to open a credit account with my company. When the customer fills the request, they are required to sign using the “Signature” field in the form. However, we would like the signature to be certified.

Can the customer’s signature be certified — for example, through a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) generated using a secure device (such as a cryptographic key, smart card, token, or qualified cloud-based solution)?

Are any of these solutions can help me and how: Nintex eSign, DocuSign, AdobeSign ???
