About The Client​

eSign Genie is a US-based HIPAA-compliant company which provides a platform for digital signatures. Embedded into the customer’s software or used independently, it allows to create documents/reusable templates, share them securely and obtain fast and secure legally binding electronic and digital signatures.

The customer provides a platform for electronic legally binding signatures. To safely store private keys they needed to use a highly secure and HIPAA-compliant Hardware Secure Module (HSM) provided by Amazon (AWS CloudHSM). The deployment and configuration of the service, as well as the creation of properly secured private keys and integration of applications with HSM are not some easy tasks. Greg Solutions applied our extensive experience to support the customer every step of the way, starting from the configuration of CloudHSM till the generation of a proper CSR (certificate signing request) for the Cloud Authority (CA) and integration of the application with CloudHSM using the Client HSM daemon, HSM SDK and Java.
