eSign's 21 CFR Pt. 11 Module is a free module included with an Enterprise licence, and ensures that your organization meets FDA regulations for the use of electronic signatures.
eSign offers a 21 CFR Part 11 module designed to ensure your compliance with the US FDA's electronic signature regulations under 21 CFR Part 11.
Our validated Part 11 module incorporates essential eSignature features, including authentication, reasons for signatures, and signature manifestation. These capabilities guarantee regulatory compliance while streamlining the signing process, making it more efficient, cost-effective, and convenient for everyone involved.
Simplify compliance with eSign.
Create accurate and comprehensive record copies
To comply with 21 CFR Part 11, a system must be capable of generating accurate and complete copies of records in both human-readable and electronic formats, suitable for FDA review, inspection, and copying.
eSign enables authorized users to retrieve and export digitally signed documents along with a system-generated digital audit history of signing events and an exportable Certificate of Completion. Additionally, all documents are digitally signed by eSign, providing an open standards method to verify document integrity.
Manage and restrict who can access the system and documents.
21 CFR Part 11 mandates that systems must implement authority checks to ensure only authorized individuals can use the system, electronically sign records, access operations or computer system inputs/outputs, alter records, or perform specific operations.
eSign upholds this requirement by maintaining a comprehensive list of users, roles, access rights, and permissions within the system. User identification is based on a combination of email address and password, with the password serving to authenticate access to the system.
Additionally, eSign offers optional advanced authentication methods to further validate the identity of all transacting parties. These methods include one-time passcodes sent to mobile devices, knowledge-based authentication, and PIN protection on envelopes.
