What is a digital signature? Isn’t it the same as an electronic signature? In the ever-changing world of technology, it can certainty be confusing, but learning the difference is simple.

An electronic signature is an electronic symbol attached to a contract or other record, used by a person with an intent to sign. In contrast, digital signatures guarantee that an electronic document is authentic. What’s important to know is that both electronic and digital signatures are binding.
