  • AUTH_RSA_
  • RSA_– this file is used to sign applications and requests on government portals

An electronic digital signature is a set of special characters intended for:

Such a public key is required in order to authenticate documents. It is possible and necessary to install an EDS certificate for a public key on all computers that will receive electronic correspondence.

EDS storage

EDS keys, as a rule, are stored on special key media, earlier ordinary magnetic diskettes were used for this purpose, but time has shown them to be unreliable and short-lived, so certified media such as RuToken are increasingly used today.
