U-Sign

U-Sign is a web-based platform for electronic document signing, designed to simplify and accelerate approval and validation processes.

It allows users to securely sign electronic documents with full legal validity, supporting various levels of signature (simple, advanced, qualified) and ensuring full traceability of operations.

U-Sign is designed to integrate easily with existing document workflows, improving administrative efficiency and reducing paper usage.

Features

• Web platform (no software installation required on the user’s PC)
• Access with institutional credentials
• Signature certificates already available on the platform (for authorized users)
• Ability to sign multiple documents at once
• Option to delegate signature to another signer (if registered in the system)
• Monitoring and archiving of the signing process and related files
• Integration with Titulus document management system

Requirements

The university’s U-Sign platform is available only to authorized users, even if they do not have an active digital signature certificate (in “secretary” mode). If you encounter access issues, please contact the helpdesk.

Notice for digital signature certificate holders
The digital signature certificate is issued to named individuals and involves a cost for the University. Please make sure to keep your PIN safe: losing it will result in the revocation of the certificate and require reissuance, generating additional costs for the University.

Designed for

Faculty members, Technical and administrative staff

Get started

1. Access the portal
   Go to the U-Sign website and log in with your institutional credentials (e.g., Single Sign-On, SPID, or CIE).
2. Upload the document
   Select or drag and drop the file to be signed (PDF). You may also import it from an integrated document management system.
3. Define the signers
   Add the recipients to the signing workflow, choosing whether the signature should be sequential or parallel. You may also assign delegates or roles.
4. Set the type of signature
   Choose the required type of signature (CAdES, PAdES, graphic) based on the document type and applicable regulations.
5. Start the signing workflow
   Send the document: signers will receive a notification and can sign directly from the platform.
6. Download or archive
   Once the process is complete, you can download the signed document or keep it stored in the system for compliant archiving.
