A disadvantage of the known system should be recognized as the inability to certify the date of creation of documents, as well as their content.

The closest analogue of the developed method can be recognized (http://www.top-cross.ru/Pki/E-Notary/index.html.) The service "Certification of electronic messages", which is an additional service in an automated system that performs the functions of a Certification Authority (CA) signature key certificates as a standardized (RFC 3029 Internet X.509 PublicKeyInfrastructureDataValidationandCertificationServerProtocols (DVCS). RFC 2560 OnlineCertificateStatusProtocol - OCSP. RFC 3161 Time-StampProtocol (TSP) technical solution Article 9 of paragraph 1 of the Federal Law " Federal Law "On EDS"), as well as stand-alone software th complex. A well-known Service may implement a one-time or subscription service for verification and certification of information, verification of certificates and generation of receipts containing a “time stamp”. The service summarizes the services, the technical implementation of which is standardized by international recommendations, on the facts of all kinds of checks, confirmations and the development of a “time stamp” for external components of the public key infrastructure.

The service "Certification of electronic messages" of the information system is designed as a service on Unix systems (FreeBSD, Linux) and is designed to perform the following functions:

1. Certification of possession of information with or without its presentation to the service.

2. Verification of the validity of the EDS at a particular point in time.

3. Validation of the public key certificate (for DVCS or OCSP components).

4. Development of a receipt containing a “stamp” of time.

The result of this or that function is the receipt formed by the Server.

The disadvantage of the well-known Service is the need to install certificates, special software on the workplace, and the creation of a separate certificate database. In addition, when using the well-known Service, it is not possible to store copies of the original information, which makes it possible to fake copies of documents by entering arbitrary data into some service fields without changing the appearance of the document for the user. Also, when using the Service, it is not possible to receive documents via e-mail.

The technical problem solved by the developed method consists in developing a method for automatically fixing and storing screen shots, electronic documents and files of any types, improving the electronic circulation of legally significant documents.

The technical result achieved by the implementation of the developed method consists in optimizing the time and means when concluding transactions of various kinds, exchanging official information, the appearance of a witness (third party) in any electronic transaction made using the developed method, in confirming the fact of sending a document or file with indicating the date and time of sending by e-mail, capturing images from the screen indicating the date and time of fixing, in providing the possibility of formation and provision of tions at the request of users of documents, to fix and to confirm their accomplishments through the service "Electronic Notary" transactions, the exchange of information with the indication of the date of publication, e-mail addresses. Also, the use of the developed method allows the formation and submission to the judicial and law enforcement authorities, upon their official request, of documents fixing and confirming the facts of completion of transactions of interest to them through the Electronic Notary service, or exchange of information between the parties of interest indicating the publication date, email addresses. In addition, the use of the developed method allows for the possibility of participation in the electronic exchange of digital information transmitted through system customers who do not have their own automated information processing systems, documents and materials certified by the developed method can be sent and are subject to acceptance as evidence by any organizations, state bodies, local authorities, law enforcement and judicial authorities.

The developed method is applicable in two versions:

- according to the first option for taking actions to fix and certify the fact of sending an e-mail (E-mail) while fixing its contents. Pre-registration of the counterparty in the "electronic notary" system. To fix the mail, when sending, in the "Copy" field, insert the email address of the "Electronic Notary" service, indicating e-mail: reg@elnotarius.ru. A copy of the letter will be received by the Electronic Notary Service and will be available in the counterparty’s personal account. The recipient will receive a notification from the “Electronic Notary” service simultaneously with the receipt of the sent electronic letter about the fact of fixing the sent electronic letter and the existence of an unchanged certified copy in the system stored on the website in the personal account. If necessary, you can get a link to a saved copy of the letter or order a certified printed hard copy;

- according to the second option for taking actions to record and certify information contained on websites (Internet pages) on the Internet. The second option is preferably applicable to:

- fixing the conditions of the contracts, offers, conditions for the provision of services and their cost, as well as the sale of goods via the Internet;

- fixing the facts of the provision of services and their quality, when the content of these services is the creation, maintenance and filling of Internet resources;

- fixing the conditions of tenders and tenders for the supply of products and the provision of services, conditions of public procurement and other information;

- fixing illegal or illegal placement of materials on the Internet pages:

- illegal use of trademarks, service marks, photo and video materials,

- violation of copyright, related and patent rights,

- libel, publication of information discrediting honor and dignity,

- plagiarism

- false information.

When implementing the second option, the counterparty is pre-registered in the “electronic notary” system, the counterparty indicates the address of the site’s fixed page, the “electronic notary” system fixes the graphic display of the specified page on the monitor screen, the received graphic image is placed in the counterparty’s personal account indicating the time of photographing and page addresses, while automatically informing the recipient about fixing the page of the site and storing a certified copy in your account counterparty.

In modern conditions, often communication and exchange of acts of rendering services, claims, etc. documents under contracts are carried out via e-mail, which ensures efficiency in solving problems. However, when the parties “go” to court, it is difficult to prove the fact of sending documents using e-mail. Therefore, if the organization uses the “Electronic Notary” service, then it easily submits to the court a certificate confirming the fact of fixing the letter, which is proper evidence.

Often, to confirm their innocence, it is necessary to provide a screenshot of the site confirming that at such a time there was controversial information on it. The printed screenshot of the site is not certified and in case of litigation will not be proper evidence. However, if it is fixed by an independent party, the program, as evidenced by the evidence, the truth of the screenshot is difficult to refute.

In modern conditions, often communication and exchange of acts of rendering services, claims, etc. documents under contracts are carried out via e-mail, which ensures efficiency in solving problems. However, it is no secret that some Internet users, when exchanging information and documents through electronic services, including through the use of e-mail, have encountered a situation where the unscrupulous party intentionally denies the fact that they received information and / or documents.

In turn, these circumstances led to a violation of the rights and interests of the sender, who in the event of a conflict or litigation could not refer to such correspondence and exchange of documents for a number of reasons, including the lack of guarantees of reliability and confirmation of the fact of sending documents. Therefore, if the organization uses the “Electronic Notary” service, then it easily submits to the court a certificate confirming the fact of fixing the letter, which is proper evidence.

Nowadays, quite often there are situations related to the fact that false information about goods, services, etc. is posted on the Internet, information that defames the honor and dignity of citizens is published, other people's trademarks are illegally used, photos are posted on websites, without the consent of their owner to publish and demonstrate, etc. Sometimes, in order for a citizen to regain his rights, his good name, it takes a long time, for which the information that was published can be deleted from these pages or replaced, corrected, which will allow violators to avoid responsibility, and a printed screenshot of the site does not certified and in case of litigation will not be proper evidence. Using the "Electronic Notary" service, you can record the information contained on websites (web pages) on the Internet. The saved web pages will be available at any time in the “My Account” on the website www.elnotarius.ru, and, if necessary, the web page certified by the “Electronic Notary” service can be used as evidence in any disputed situation, including in court, if in the future access to the website is unavailable.

The "electronic notary" service allows you to remotely record, save in your own database and confirm the fact of the authenticity and immutability of the information stored on the server system: screen shots, mail correspondence, files of any types.

The "electronic notary" service allows you to access the system server through the remote access program and through the operator and access resources requiring authorization from it and record any information.

The "electronic notary" service uses a system of algorithm for obtaining the hash of the sum - data integrity - to confirm the immutability of the document.

The "electronic notary" service allows you to store on the server, under a personal user account, all recorded materials with the possibility of ordering a certified copy, including on paper.

The "electronic notary" service certifies with a company seal the information requested by the user stored on the server of the system and confirms its integrity and immutability.

The "electronic notary" service allows you to take screenshots by contacting the specified address on the Internet according to a schedule created by the user.

The "electronic notary" service allows you to save copies of emails sent by the user to the server and store them unchanged.

The "electronic notary" service allows you to record and confirm the fact of availability on various sites: video, flash, graphics.
