Short answer: No. They are completely different!
Digital signature is the only affordable way to securely and easily get approvals from people at scale and it uses Encryption and Private Key Associated with Digital Certificate issued by Certificate Authority (CA) also known as Trust Service Provider (TSP). The objective is to provide a very important pillar in any business : TRUST.
However, Electronic Signature can be easily hacked, therefore the document will be questionable which will delay the business processes in a negative way.
With a digital signature, any person can identify :
- Signer Identity – Answering who approved the document and when
- Document Integrity – Answer was the document changed after being signed/approved?
An electronic signature, on the other hand, does not provide the same authenticity and integrity as a digital signature.
