INTRODUCING SIGNiX: A NEW WAY TO SIGN YOUR FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS

SIGNiX's signed documents are protected against tampering at every stage of the signing process.

KBA: Knowledge Based Authentication
Knowledge-Based Authentication, or KBA, is an essential component of a multi-layer security strategy within eSign that ensures that we can protect and serve you, our clients. The KBA process is also known as "challenging questions".
For Example you may be asked to verify the following items:
Previous addresses, loans, vehicles owned, family members names, previous employers, etc.

Display Icons
Yellow exclamation point: This icon tells you something may have changed after the last signature was applied. You will see an in-document change tracker, showing you each of the signatures applied, and changes made after the last signature.
Green checkmark: This tells you that there have been no changes in the document since the last signature was applied and that all changes have been approved.
Magnifying glass: This icon tells you something was recently changed in the document you are viewing. You will need to ‘validate’ the signatures for Reader to let you know what changed.
Red X: If you see the Red X, you should not trust this document. It means that substantive changes have been made to the document and the integrity of the original PDF is compromised.
