A new frontier

The Art of Certification

A Trust Model that layers three interlocking technological strata to form the Authentia Key.

I. Qualified Electronic Signature: in development

The descriptive documentation of the work will be sealed with a PAdES di livello eIDAS.

  • ✓ Probative legal value equivalent to paper documents under EU law — in development.
  • ✓ Qualified Timestamp for enforceability against third parties (art. 42 eIDAS) — in development.
  • ✓ The identity of whoever declares is verified before they can register a work.

II. Cryptographic fingerprint in the registry

We do not store the images elsewhere: we store the document's SHA-256 fingerprint, which proves its integrity.

  • ✓ Anyone holding the PDF can recompute its fingerprint and compare: if the document was altered, the two values do not match.
  • ✓ Once the work is bound to its chip, the fingerprint can no longer be changed — not even by us. The database prevents it, not a promise.
  • ✓ Public blockchain anchoring: in development. Today the integrity proof lives in the registry.

III. NFC Chip (Authentia Key)

…the circle is closed.

  • ✓ NTAG 424 DNA standard: AES cryptographic verification with dynamic keys. Every read produces a different signature, and without the key no valid one can be produced.
  • ✓ Hold your phone close to read. No specialist knowledge required. No app to install.

But what does the collector see?

All this cryptographic complexity vanishes behind an interface of absolute clarity…
