Create CAdES-T Signature using Aruba TSA Server (servizi.arubapec.it)

See more CAdES Examples

Demonstrates how to create a signature with an external timestamp (using the Aruba TSA Server) that certifies the time of signing.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.79 or greater.

# A CAdES-T signature is one that includes a timestampToken created by an online TSA (time stamping authority).
