FAQ Question

Why should I get an IGC certificate?

FAQ Answer

IGC certificates are cross-certificated under the Federal Bridge which means that they are accepted for use in government applications such as the Electronic Prescriptions for Controlled Substances (EPCS) program.  IGC certificates can also be used by professionals who submit signed and sealed documents to state and local agencies, such as Departments of Transportation (DOTs) and individuals who perform eNotary services. 

 

IGC certificates offer multiple benefits:

  • Using an IGC certificate allows individuals online access to information and services, such as state and local agencies for digital signing and sealing.
  • Deployment of IGC certificates can also reduce cycle time and increase the efficiency of transactions between online entities. This is accomplished through converting paper-based to electronic transactions and processes.
  • IGC certificates enable organizations to authenticate individuals initiating electronic transactions and gain assurance of an individual’s identity prior to granting access to confidential information.
  • IGC certificates can be used to create non-repudiation via digital signatures.
