Digital Preservation

Qualified Signature Preservation

Our solution

Our QPRES APIs let you preserve the long-term verifiability of QES-signed documents through a qualified signature preservation process based on signature augmentation without storage.

The service receives a signed document, verifies whether it can be preserved, applies the required preservation evidence policy, and returns an augmented Preservation Object (PO). The returned PO implements the evidence needed for long-term validation and must be stored by your application.

QPRES is aligned with ETSI TS 119 511 & 512 and is designed for long-term scenarios such as signed contracts, digital archives, and business records that must remain verifiable over time.

Main features

Preserve CAdES, XAdES and PAdES signed documents through signature augmentation

Discover available preservation profiles and capabilities with RetrieveInfo

Submit signed documents and receive the augmented PO with PreservePO

Receive the next augmentation window, to understand when future preservation actions should be planned

No document or evidence storage on QPRES side: the returned PO implements the preservation evidence itself

OAuth2 Client Credentials authentication for secure API access

Benefits for your application

Long-term verifiability

keep signed documents technically verifiable even as certificates, keys and cryptographic algorithms age

Standards-based preservation

implements the standard protocol defined in ETSI TS 119 512

Simple integration

call the APIs from your existing archive, DMS or business application without changing your storage architecture

Clear lifecycle control

store the augmented PO in your own environment and plan future augmentations using the next augmentation window

No external evidence repository dependency

the returned PO is the authoritative preserved document, with preservation evidence embedded
