End-to-End Encryption: How ePact Protects Your Sensitive Documents

In an era where data breaches and cyberattacks dominate headlines almost daily, protecting sensitive business documents is no longer optional—it's essential. At ePact, we take data security seriously, implementing military-grade encryption to safeguard your most important documents. But what does this really mean, and how does it work?

Understanding 256-bit AES Encryption

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) with 256-bit keys is the same encryption standard used by governments, military organizations, and financial institutions worldwide. To put this in perspective: breaking this encryption would require more computing power than exists in the entire world and would take longer than the age of the universe.

But technical specifications are only part of the story. What matters most is what this means for your business: your contracts, agreements, and sensitive documents are protected by the strongest encryption available.

How ePact's Security System Works

From the moment you upload a document to ePact, it's protected throughout the entire process:

Upload and Storage: Documents are encrypted instantly upon upload. They're never stored in unencrypted form on our servers.

Transmission: When documents are sent between parties, they remain encrypted. Even if someone intercepts the data in transit, they would only see useless, encrypted code.

Access Control: Only authorized parties with the proper digital keys can decrypt and view documents. This is ensured through our integration with MitID and other verification systems.

Audit Trail: All actions are securely logged, so you can always see who has accessed documents and when.

Why Security Matters for Digital Signatures

Digital signature processes often handle a company's most critical documents: contracts, agreements, confidential business information. A security breach here can have catastrophic consequences—from financial losses to lost customer trust and legal ramifications.

With ePact's end-to-end encryption, you can send even the most sensitive documents with peace of mind. Whether it's employment contracts with personal information, confidential business agreements, or financial documents, your data is protected at the highest level.

Security Without Compromising Usability

Often, security and user-friendliness are seen as opposites—the more secure, the harder to use. At ePact, we've proven this doesn't have to be the case. Our encryption works invisibly in the background. You and your signers don't need to think about it—upload, send, and sign as normal while we handle the security.

Your Next Step Toward Secure Digital Document Management

In a digital world where threats constantly evolve, you can't be too careful with your business documents. With ePact's 256-bit AES encryption, you get enterprise-level security without enterprise complexity.

Protect your documents. Protect your business. Choose ePact for secure digital signatures.
