eSign Genie’s KBA security feature helps prove the identity of users by requiring a social security number to be provided. When sending and receiving sensitive, private, or protected documents for electronic signatures, knowledge-based authentication adds an additional layer of security by preventing unauthorized access or breaches. KBA is used for authenticating the signer or recipient’s identity and verifies that they are who they say they are before providing access to sign or review sensitive documents.
It is important to ensure KBA is used as an additional identity check in industries like banking and healthcare, where the data provided is sensitive or the contracts can be high-value. It’s also an essential security tool in the event that taxpayers need to electronically sign forms 8878 or 8879 where KBA is mandatory.
