As the possible decision of the problem of the technology of acknowledgement of authorship and integrity in workflow document management which is based on DS ? as a matter of fact, unique code for each author to the message also acts.
The technology of DS in workflow document management is based on steam «a closed key - an open key». The first one is known only to the signature?s author, the second one is done both to the author, and the addressee of the message.
