I’m looking for software which I can host myself, own website. The purpose of the software is to let clients sign contracts online digitally.

What would be the easiest way to do this? And perhaps any suggestions?

Thanks.

      Honestly I don’t really know. I don’t think it has to be but you’ll need to research what kind of certs you’ll need for your purposes and what options exists for a CA.

      My overall point was more that this isn’t really a “just setup Apache” web service, it’s a fair bit more involved since your looking for (I’m assuming) legally valid digital signatures which means they need to be secure, unique, identifiable, and adhere to non-repudiation. Services like DocuSign do all of that work already so unless you truly want open source because of passion or principles, this isn’t really a great area to try and roll your own without some experience and expertise.

        Thank you, it makes sense what you saying. Might not be the cost and effort worth in the end.
