Christal,
As per the previous replies to this message suggest there are many
standards covering the technical aspects of security, electronic signatures,
electronic seals, public key technology, etc. But I believe the question you are raising
relates specifically to e-Notarization and concern how to determine the
integrity and reliability of a signature on a transaction. In which case I would recommend you look
at the following OASIS DSS FAQ and see if it covers the eNotary
scenario you have in mind.
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/dss/faq.php
If you need any further information on the standards in this area
please let me know. My colleague Nick Pope and I have been actively involved in
standards in this area for over 20 years and a major contributor to the
European Electronic Signature Standardisation Initiative (EESSI) work in ETSI, CEN
and now OASIS. I can probably point you to the required information.
Regards
John Ross

Dear Mr. Borras:
Thanks so much for your email message. The standards we
are seeking concern how to determine the integrity and reliability of a
signature certification authority. If anyone within your organization or
one of your contacts has developed such standards we would be very interested
in obtaining a copy of them. Thanks again.
Sincerely yours,
Christal Pike-Nase

Christal
It was good to meet you, if only very briefly, in Portland. You asked
about standards work for e-notorisation. As far as I can tell nobody in
OASIS is currently working on this, but if you would like to give me a brief
overview of the current problems as you see them and the need for such
standards, I'll feed it into my e-governemnt technical committee and see
what we can do about agreeing a standard.
I'm not sure I can guarantee an immediate solution as this will have to compete
with many other similar requests but I'll do my best to get it up our
agenda quickly.
