Abstract
The illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for receiving a request from a client to instantiate an electronic document. After successful completion of mutual authentication between a web application server and the client, the web application server provides the electronic document to the client. The web application server may then receive a set of changes associated with the electronic document to form a modified document. After receiving a request from the client for a digital signature to be generated for the modified document, the web application server generates a digital signature using a private key of the web application server and an identity of an end-user associated with the client. The web application server then signs the modified document with the digital signature.
