Crypto plugin for private24. PrivatBank has provided corporate clients with the ability to sign payments without using Java. What is digital signature
In this article I will tell you how quickly, simply, and, most importantly, completely free of charge, you can get an electronic digital signature through Privat 24 (I believe many people use this excellent service).
First, let’s briefly talk about what an electronic digital signature (the so-called digital signature) is and why it is needed in general.
What is digital signature
EDS (the abbreviation stands for electronic digital signature) is a kind of signature of one or another individual, delivered electronically.
Why do you need an electronic digital signature (EDS)
The need for the emergence of digital signatures is caused by the fact that at present “digital” is increasingly replacing “paper”. Technologies are gradually being introduced into our lives, and we have to somehow take them into account. And if earlier employees brought you a ton of papers to sign and affix a seal, now they can simply send such documents by mail, and you will endorse them or sign them directly from your computer, using an electronic digital signature (in accordance with the legislation of Ukraine, printing is no longer mandatory attribute legal entity, as well as an individual entrepreneur).
The same can be said about receiving any official documents. If earlier you went to one or another government body, filled out an application form, signed it, submitted it, and waited at least three days until they prepared the necessary document for you, now you can go to the website of this very body and submit the application directly online, signing him with his electronic digital signature. By doing this you will confirm the authorship, as well as the truth of your intentions regarding the receipt of a particular document.
Now about the specifics. Currently in Ukraine you need an electronic signature:
1. To submit an electronic declaration (as you know, due to changes in legislation, from now on and forever civil servants are required to submit an annual declaration exclusively in electronic form).
Actually, in order to be able to sign such a declaration after completion, an electronic digital signature is required.
2. To be able to obtain various types of information from state registers (you form the corresponding request for information using electronic digital signature).
At the same time, I bet Pinocchio’s long nose that in the future electronic digital signatures will be used almost everywhere. In international contracts, at the post office, as well as in various public and private institutions. So I recommend that every conscientious citizen of Ukraine get it.
How to quickly and easily obtain an electronic digital signature through Privat 24
1. Go to Privat24. Finding the section ALL SERVICES, then select BUSINESS
2. Then click on "Download certificate."
2) you will suddenly find the following on the screen: “The plugin was found, but blocked. Unblock CryptoPlugin to continue working”;
3) you will see the message “Plugin is not installed” (however, you will be prompted to install it).
In order not to interrupt the process of obtaining an electronic digital signature, I will answer points 2.3 at the end of this article. Until then we continue.
4. If everything is ok with the CryptoPlugin plugin, the following window should appear.
You will need to check your personal details. Then click on the green button.
Create any new folder on any of your drives.
You can call it “EZP”. It sounds menacing and convincing!
6. The following field will appear, asking you to create a password for the key store.
How to come up with strong password I already talked about it in the article: How to quickly come up with an easy and reliable password that you won’t forget. I recommend taking this advice.
We enter it into the fields, put a tick next to the sentence “I have read it... blah blah blah”...
We get serial number certificate of your electronic digital signature. The corresponding confirmation of its creation (release) should be sent to you by email.
As you can see, the process of obtaining an electronic signature was quite easy, simple, fast, and, most importantly, absolutely free!
With which I congratulate myself and at the same time you!
Well, now let’s return to two problematic issues that remained unsolved by me, namely: how to unlock СryptoPlugin, and also how to install СryptoPlugin if you do not already have it installed .
1. How to unlock СryptoPlugin
If you clicked on “Download certificate” in Privat24, you saw the following message on the screen: “The plugin was found, but blocked.” Unblock CryptoPlugin to continue working"
Don't be scared!
This menacing message means that you have the plugin installed, but your browser has certain restrictions on its use. You just need to remove these restrictions. How to do this?!
If you have Mozilla Firefox(my case)
Click on the hash mark in the upper right corner. Choose - Add-ons.
We see our Crypto Plugin and change the field with"Enable upon request" on "Always on".
That's it. This simple operation should help.
UPD. As suggested in the comments, in new version Mozila The crypto plugin is no longer available. Those. It will no longer be possible to do as described above. Take note.
If you have Opera
Install Mozilla! Just kidding, of course. I just remembered one funny story, how a Privatbank online consultant helped me get insurance.
Seriously, you need to go to Opera add-ons browser://extensions and check if BankID CryptoPlugin is enabled. If not, you need to enable it.
If you have Google Chrome
Go to Chrome add-ons: chrome://extensions/ and check if the plugin is enabled.
2. How to install CryptoPlugin
If you see the message “Plugin is not installed”, don’t be alarmed either! Because you will immediately be prompted to install CryptoPlugin.
However, even if this does not happen, you can always download the most latest version plugin at the link: https://www.cryptopro.ru/products/cades/plugin (just copy the address).
