Utah may erase early but unused e-commerce law

Quote:Utah won applause a decade ago for setting rules for digital-signature technology. But the law hasn't been used and now may be repealed...

...the repeal would take effect on May 1

The law was intended to prevent e-commerce fraud and forged digital signatures. It required, among other things, for those issuing digital certificates to register with the government and to adhere to certain guidelines; to be subject to third-party audits; and to follow financial guidelines and international information security standards.

But several years have passed since anyone registered with the state's corporations office as a result of the law, Hillyard acknowledged, "so the consensus is to repeal it."
