27.3.12 How to Specify a Workflow Digital Signature Policy

Digital signatures provide a mechanism for the nonrepudiation of digitally-signed human tasks. This ability to mandate that a participant acting on a task signs the details and their action before the task is updated ensures that they cannot repudiate it later. To specify a workflow digital signature policy: 1. Click the Access tab. 2. From the Signature Policy list, select Configure Policy, as shown in Figure 27–66 . Note: If digital signatures are enabled for a task, actionable emails are not sent during runtime. This is the case even if actionable emails are enabled during design time. 27-72 Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle SOA Suite Figure 27–66 Digital Signatures

3. Specify the signature policy for task participants to use:

■ No signature required Participants can send and act upon tasks without providing a signature. This is the default policy. ■ Password required Participants specify a signature before sending tasks to the next participant. Participants must reenter their password while acting on a task. The password is used to generate the digital signature. A digital signature authenticates the identity of the message sender or document signer. This ensures that the original content of the sent message is unchanged. ■ Digital certificate required Participants must possess a digital certificate for the nonrepudiation of digitally-signed human tasks. A digital certificate establishes the participants credentials. It is issued by a certification authority CA. It contains the following: – Your name – A serial number – Expiration dates – A copy of the certificate holders public key used for encrypting messages and digital signatures – Digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that message authenticity can be established The CA names and CA CRL and URLs of the issuing authorities must be configured separately.
