“Use the old certificate until the validity period”

As the monopoly status of the accredited certificate disappears as of the 10th, various private electronic signature services like PASS, Kakao, Naver, Toss, etc. they can be used for e-commerce or year-end clearance.

As reported by the financial sector on the 7th, the revised bill of the Electronic Signature Law, which repealed the accredited certificate and introduced a voluntary authentication system for electronic signature services, will come into effect from the 10th.

The accredited certificate was developed in 1999 so that an institution recognized by the country can issue a certificate and process identity verification such as a resident card or an online signature.

As the news of the revocation of the public certificate is known, the focus is on whether the existing certificate can be used. Whether you use it or not, the answer is “you can use it until the expiration date.” That is, even if the public certificate is revoked, the used certificate can be used up to the validity period.

In this regard, Seong-soo Eun, chairman of the Financial Services Commission, discussed the use of existing certificates in an executive meeting on the 4th, emphasizing that financial policies should be reviewed from the perspective of financial consumers.

President Eun said, “Because the official certificate was revoked, I also tried to access Internet banking and confirmed that the existing certificate can be used as is. People are curious to know how politics really affects me. “He said.

Financial consumers can obtain the financial certification service developed by the KFTC after 10 days at most banks.

The financial authentication service is a service that customers can use at any time via a computer or mobile device by storing a financial certificate in the KFTC cloud (virtual storage space) without installing unnecessary programs.

It can be used in mobile banking by obtaining a financial certificate from the menu of a bank or mobile banking / Internet certification center.

The validity period is 3 years and it is possible to extend the period automatically.
