Abstract

A method for securing data assessing a probative value of document transfers. The identity of a recipient of a document is authenticated. The document is transmitted from a document sender to the recipient by processing the document processing. A probative value of the processing step is measured. The probative values of processing of the transmission are aggregated to provide a measure of the overall probative value of said document transmission. The overall probative value is associated with the transmission of the document. Also provided is a trusted third party network system for managing secure electronic correspondence which includes at least one application computer server handling a directory service for users of the system and a service for supplying the users with current correspondence accounts on the computer server.
