Electronic data interchange (EDI) signature
Several e-commerce flow need certificates:
- AS1: uses S/MIME on SMTP base
- AS2: uses S/MIME on HTTP or HTTPS base
- XML: uses XML signature functions
For those needs we recommend Sectigo S/MIME Organization-Validated class 2 certificates.
Warning: do not mixes messages signature certificate (here above) and AS2 server certificates to activate HTTPS port for messages reception. Activation of HTTPS port requires a standard certificate: Obtain a server certificate.
EDI invoices exchanges via AS2 protocol is compliant with French legislation about invoices dematerilization (article 289 bis of CGI). But a class 2 certificate (or higher) has to be used (check with your legal department).
