When electronic signatures are used by executives of legal entities, including companies, enterprises, organisations and other institutions, ensuring their security is of particular importance. Transferring an electronic signature to another person may result in the signature holder’s information being accessed by unauthorised third parties.

Since advanced electronic signatures have the same legal validity as handwritten signatures, giving one to an accountant or another person without proper control may lead to misuse. In general, handing over an electronic signature device and its PIN code to another person creates the following risks, including the risk of unauthorised access to information:

- Registering a company in your name and making illegal money transfers

- Accumulation of tax debt

- Taking out a loan in your name

- Access to information about property you own, such as a house or vehicle, including addresses, registered residents, purchase dates and other details

- Your laboratory test results

- Your salary amount and pension capital

- Powers of attorney issued by you

- Court cases in which you are involved

- Your border-crossing information, including the countries you visited and the dates of your trips

- Information about your military obligation, fines and other details

The risks listed above can be prevented with the SİMA next-generation digital signature. Through kabinet.sima.az, a company executive can grant signing rights to any employee entirely online without transferring their own electronic signature.

This allows employees to log in using their individual digital signatures, while the system restricts access to personal data and limits users strictly to their permitted tasks. The system also tracks every action, including who performed it and when. This prevents sensitive data from being exposed to unauthorized users.
