The certificate is embodied in a ".p7s" file, digitally signed by Digiprove, which
is included as an attachment to the certifying email. Follow these steps to prove
the validity of the certificate and the original content file:
|
|
|
|
1. Save the .p7s attachment containing the Digiprove Content Certificate into your chosen folder/location. |

The program will ask you to select the original content file that was digiproved and the p7s file. It will then run a number of checks: |
|
|
- that the P7s file conforms to industry standard and is properly signed
- that the signer is signer@digiprove.com
- that the public key identifying the signer is actually one of Digiprove's known keys
- that the digital fingerprint of the content file conforms exactly to the digital fingerprint referenced in the Digiprove Certificate
|
|
|
|
If these checks are successful, you will see a message stating that the exact content file existed on the specified date and time. |
