Why USB e-Token?
A Digital Signature certificate (DSC) is kept
in internet explorer of computer system (PC) but
keeping DSC on your computer system has following
draw backs :-
a) It can be misused by anyone who is having
access to your computer system.
b) DSC is lost if computer system is formatted
or internet explorer is changed.
Accordingly, safe and proper method is to keep
DSC on e-token, a small USB port device, which
is password protected. The said e-token is a small
hardware device and can be plugged to USB port
of any system to digitally sign the documents
and when not in use can be kept in safe custody
