Hello all, Until the end of 2007 the Austrian so-called "Verwaltungssignatur" (based on certificates which basically have less strict requirements for the issuing CAs) could be used equivalently to a qualified signature (under specific circumstances). Based on this Verwaltungssignatur, Mobilkom Austria (an Austrian telecom provider) provided a server based signature using out-of-band authentication via one-time codes sent to registered cell phones. Due to economic reasons, however, Mobilkom Austria did not pursue the certification of this solution for qualified signatures. In Austria this is still a topic worth discussion.
