Allt eftersom kommunikations- och informationstekniken utvecklas, blir det vanligare att människor integrera med varandra på elektronisk väg. Information skickas och det har uppstått ett behov av att kunna säkra att den person som integrationen sker med också är den som han eller hon utger sig för att vara och att de uppgifter som skickats inte blivit förändrade på något sätt, samt att inga obehöriga tar del utav den. De traditionella metoderna att säkerställa ett dokuments innehåll och avsändarens identitet, där underskriften haft en central betydelse, har kommit att appliceras på den moderna tekniken. Rättsliga aspekter har diskuterats och för att hålla takt med den snabba tekniska utvecklingen och för att överbrygga landsgränserna inom EU, har det uppstått regleringar på området i syfte att skapa en ökad säkerhet när det gäller elektroniska överförda dokument och de underskrifter som kan finnas på dessa. För att kunna skapa en säkerhet för den överförda informationen och en tillit för den som ska förlita sig på dokumentets innehåll, finns det i lag (2000:832) om kvalificerad elektronisk signatur regleringar som avser åtagandet gällande en tredje man, en s.k.
