Check 21 Solutions from Certicom

The Certicom Security Architecture for Check 21 is a comprehensive solution that allowed check application and transport vendors to quickly and cost-effectively add digital signature functionality per ANSI X9.37 security standards.  These digital signatures brought strong security to the digital image exchange process.  Should a signed image be compromised (e.g., have its own value or the name of the payor or payee altered), the signature will not be verifiable, and the check will not be cleared.

A more complete discussion of Check 21 can be found in Code and Cipher Volume 1, No. 3.
