An electronic signature, or e-signature, refers to data in electronic form, which is logically associated with other data in electronic form and which is used by the signatory to sign.

This type of signature provides the same legal standing as a handwritten signature as long as it adheres to the requirements of the specific regulation it was created under (e.g., eIDAS in the European Union, NIST-DSS in the USA or ZertES in Switzerland).

Computer and network surveillance is the monitoring of computer activity and data stored on a hard drive, or data being transferred over computer networks such as the Internet.

The monitoring is often carried out covertly and may be completed by governments, corporations, criminal organizations, or individuals.

It may or may not be legal and may or may not require authorization from a court or other independent government agency.

A document is a written, drawn, presented, or memorialized representation of thought.

The word originates from the Latin documentum, which denotes a "teaching" or "lesson": the verb doceō denotes "to teach".

In the past the word was usually used to denote a written proof useful as evidence of a truth or fact.

In the computer age, "document" usually denotes a primarily textual computer file, including its structure and format, e.

g.

fonts, colors, and images.

Contemporarily, "document" is not defined by its transmission medium, e.

g., paper, given the existence of electronic documents.

"Documentation" is distinct because it has more denotations than "document".

Documents are also distinguished from "realia", which are 3 dimensional objects that would otherwise satisfy the definition of "document" because they memorialize or represent thought; documents are considered more as 2 dimensional representations.
