The present White Paper describes the legal framework conditions and technical requirements for the creation of electronic time stamps and also examines the differences between qualified and non-qualified time stamps, for differentiation purposes termed "other time stamps" below.
It explains how qualified and other time stamps are technically implemented. In addition, the White Paper demonstrates how the different implementation measures can affect compliance issues, legal probative value and cost structures.
Moreover, this White paper presents examples of current application scenarios for electronic time stamps.
