This note(XAdES) extends the IETF/W3CXML-Signature Syntax and Processing specification [XMLDSIG] into the domain of non-repudiation by defining XML formats for advanced electronic signatures that remain valid over long periods and are compliant with the European "Directive 1999/93/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 December 1999 on a Community framework for electronic signatures" [EU-DIR-ESIG](also denoted as "the Directive" or the "European Directive" in the rest of the present document) and incorporate additional useful information in common uses cases. This includes evidence as to its validity even if the signer or verifying party later attempts to deny(repudiates) the validity of the signature. An advanced electronic signature aligned with the present document can, in consequence, be used for arbitration in case of a dispute between the signer and verifier, which may occur at some later time, even years later. 1, record 5, English, - XML%20Advanced%20Electronic%20Signatures%20%28XAdES%29

Cette note (XAdES) prolonge la spécification de la syntaxe et du traitement XML Signature de IETF/W3C [XMLDSIG] dans le domaine de la non-répudiation, en définissant des formats XML pour les signatures électroniques évoluées qui restent valides pendant de grandes périodes et sont conformes à la « Directive 1999/93/EC du Parlement Européen et du Conseil du 13 décembre 1999 sur le cadre communautaire des signatures électroniques » [EU-DIR-ESIG] (désigné également par « la Directive » ou « la Directive Européenne » dans la suite du présent document) et qui incorporent des informations supplémentaires utiles dans les situations d'utilisations courantes. Cela comprend la preuve de leur validité, même si le signataire ou le tiers vérifiant essayent ensuite de nier (répudier) la validité de la signature. Une signature électronique évoluée en accord avec le présent document peut par conséquent être utilisée pour arbitrage en cas de litige entre le signataire et le vérificateur, litige qui peut survenir plus tard, éventuellement des années après. 1, record 5, French, - Les%20signatures%20%C3%A9lectroniques%20%C3%A9volu%C3%A9es%20XML%20%28XAdES%29
