TekenAja Launches as Digital Signature Platform, Offers Biometric Verification Capabilities

PT D Clear Signature Together (DTB), the bearer of the digital signature product TekenAja, today (03/2) officially carried out grand launch. To DailySocial, Rionald Soerjanto as Co-Founder & COO explained, DTB is a subsidiary company GDP Ventures shaped like j. Currently, it is also the first electronic certification company to receive parent status from the Ministry of Communication and Informatics.

"For digitalsignature, in Indonesia there are several levels. Namely registered, then certified, and parent. If it is a parent, the platform must meet many technical, system and security requirements that must be carried out," said Rionald.

Apart from having to pass a fairly strict audit from the Ministry of Communication and Informatics, the company also obtained this status thanks to a certified infrastructure. For example, they have obtained ISO 27001 for system security. The company also has a tier-3 data center facility and a tier-4 data recovery center to carry out business processes.

SignAja also claimed to be the first digital signature platform provider to actually take advantage of biometric verification. For data validation, they have entered into a cooperation agreement with Dukcapil to access population data.

“Usually when verifying identity, the user will be prompted selfie along with his ID card. Then the system will match the photo on the ID card with the real face. The mechanism still has loopholes, irresponsible users can use someone else's identity (NIK, Name, Address, etc.), then create a fake ID card with their own photo for verification. That's why biometrics is important," continued Rionald.

He also explained that the concept of digital signatures basically allows individuals to be able to make transactions online securely by attaching a verified digital certificate (containing personal data). The output can vary, some of which are popular in the form of electronic signatures or unique QR codes. The role of players such as TekenAja has the task of issuing the digital certificate.

"digital signature coverage until it has to verify its identification. There are several stages, the time for registration of the person must be correct. Then when processing the transaction, it must also be verified. So let's say my wife has data login me to sign something, he still couldn't use it because he had to verify his biometrics to make sure it was really me who signed it."

Usage scenario

For end users, the TekenAja service can currently be used at financial service institutions to keep transactions running smoothly online and safe. Users can later use the application mobile devices to perform the signature process. However, it will not only cover that sector, but will also expand its use for other functions. For example, helping the HRD system in the company so that various applications (leave, Reimbursement, etc.) performed by employees, the validation is done digitally.

On the business side, there will be two implementation models, either through a special portal provided or through API integration into the application system. While those who have used TekenAja are banking, multi-financial, fintech, to retail companies.

Rionald said that the application of TekenAja would be used to ensure the legality of transactions between individuals. He gave an example, when there is a car or house sale and purchase contract, the ratification (usually done with a wet signature on stamp duty) can be done digitally via an application.

Integrated with Original RI

Rionald himself opened new people in the digital industry. He also heads RI Genuine biometric authentication platform and Login ID. With the same parent company, TekenAja is also integrated with the capabilities of Asli RI. "TenAja is a company digitalsignature thick with biometrics. Because in my opinion biometric authentication is currently the best security system, the most difficult to break," he said.

He also said that the Indonesian government, both Dukcapil and Kominfo, were quite supportive in terms of applying biometrics for digital signatures. While many players feel it is enough just to verify with the mechanism Selfie earlier, even though according to him the concept can only be effective in countries such as Singapore or China (eg in China, falsifying e-KTP is punishable by death).

"This year's target, we want to be more aggressive in penetrating the market, besides that it will also expand cooperation in various lines," concluded Rionald.
