Certified E-Mail Forwarding Service
Certified E-Mail Forwarding Service (CEFS)
is a specially structured B2B service for Banks, Financial
Institutions, Stock Broking Firms, Insurance Companies etc who need
to send out e-mail notices to their clients and preserve them as
evidences for future use.
This will be particularly useful since the
addressee is unlikely to have a digital certificate and is not going
to confirm receipt of the e-mail notice.
The service offered from a third party such as the Cyber Evidence Archival Center (CEAC)
is a better option than the sending company digitally signing the
outgoing mail or using any other device of its own to obtain a
confirmation of receipt from the addressee.
Under this service, CEAC will
register an E-mail Communication sent by the Company to its
customer and provide the following three kinds of certification.
a) Certified Sent
b) Certified Delivered
c) Certified read.
The objective of this service is to enable the
sender of an e-mail to preserve the
communication as "Legally Presentable Evidence".
Procedure of Application
The details of the working of the CEFS will be
determined based on the client's requirement.
