The mobile digital evidence

CertiPhoto creates digital evidence for a precise visual situation, linked to a place and a time. The service now covers certified photos and certified videos for field operations, claims, inspections and business workflows.

Each photo or video is associated with controlled technical data, timestamped by a trusted authority, cryptographically sealed and stored in a secure infrastructure to preserve integrity and traceability.

Photo proof for building permit

Photo, video, certificate: complete evidence

CertiPhoto supports both occasional use and professional deployments: mobile capture, PDF certificate, portal access and public verification.

Certified photo

A picture taken from the app, timestamped, geolocated when available and sealed in a PDF certificate.

Certified video

A video sequence linked to digital fingerprints, proof artifacts and a signed certificate.

Public verification

Each certificate can be checked online using its identifier, QR code or verification link.

Take a picture

Take a shot easily as you would with any smartphone, and add a comment to your photo if you want or need to.

Geolocate

The app geolocates your picture in seconds by GPS. You can also certify a non-geolocated picture if no GPS signal is found.

Certify

Confirm your choices, send the picture and... that's all! You'll get the picture certificate by email in a few seconds.
Take a shot, geolocate, certify

Digital picture certificate

Each certificate is self-contained, which means all cryptographic data are embedded to be checked with no limit in time. There is no dependency whatsoever with an external entity which could potentially be corrupted, as a Blockchain for instance.

More than just a PDF document

When it comes to documents management, PDF/A ISO standard has established itself worldwide since its launch in 2005. It is platform independent and designed to achieve long-term archiving of electronic documents.

  • QR-code validation(1)

    By flashing this code, you can instantly get an attestation of conformity containing the picture details, at any time.
  • Electronic signature and secure timestamp(2)

    This inset provides access to the signature properties of the document, including information from the trusted third party that provided the secure timestamp. All certificates used are embedded in the document.
  • Picture data(3)

    Data related to the picture are recorded in this paragraph along with a cyphered security chain. They are included in the EXIF metadata as well.
  • User data(4)

    The distinctive details of the device which took the picture, as well as the identity of its author, are captured here.
