Proof to this is the increasing number of diploma and Certificate mills that capitalise on the institute's name and credibility. It is therefore crucial for education institutes such as colleges, universities and schools to safeguard against these attempts and to be able to sustain a highly trusted and reliable network to ensure that all functions of the institute meet the stipulated regulatory compliance requirements particularly in terms of privacy and confidentiality.

Adobe Certified Document Services

Publish secure and authentic electronic PDF documents

Education institutions have an ever increasing number of students and faculty members publishing high stake documents that need to be protected from tampering. GlobalSign is a participant in Adobe Systems Certified Document Services program for PDFs, certifying that a PDF was authored by the person who claims to be who he is and that the file has not been tampered with since publication.

More and more education institutes are publishing documents electronically rather than the paper equivalent, because of its value in terms of security, portability, and ease of exchange. CDS provides a more secure and reliable form of document exchange, enabling documents to retain their integrity while recipients can determine the documents authenticity and authorship.

With educational institutes shifting towards electronic methods of documentation this solution enables the fast and secure transfer of confidential information.
