TECHNOLOGICAL STRUCTURE
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.1
.
Where an application for registration and the accompanying request for service are transmitted electronically, the reliability and security standards prescribed in this Chapter shall apply.
The computer system that is installed and the standards with which it must comply, in particular with respect to security, shall protect the confidentiality of the documents during transmission, ensure their nonrepudiation by establishing the identity of the applicant or of the person who sends the documents over an open communications network, and guarantee their integrity and completeness at all times.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.2
.
An asymmetric cryptographic system, combined with an auxiliary symmetric cryptographic system, shall be used to ensure the reliability of the data constituting the electronic documents transmitted to the registry office.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.3
.
The technological structure used for the electronic transmission of documents to the registry office shall be established in accordance with international or internationally recognized recommendations and standards, and more specifically, at a minimum, with the following criteria or criteria that are at least equivalent;
(
1
)
International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Recommendation X.500 (11/93), in general, adopted as an international standard by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) under the general designation of ISO/IEC 9594: 1995, for the management of the directory containing the information relating to the certificates and public keys that form an integral part of key pairs;
(
2
)
ITU Recommendation X.509 (11/93), in particular, adopted as an international standard by ISO and IEC under the designation ISO/IEC 9594-8: 1995 Information Technology — Open systems interconnection (OSI) — The Directory: Authentication framework, for the issue and storage of key pairs and signature verification and encryption certificates;
(
3
)
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Standard X12 for data format and markup;
(
4
)
The American federal government’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Standard FIPS 140-1 for the DES, DSA and SHA-1 algorithms used in cryptography; and
(
5
)
ISO/IEC 8859-1: 1988 graphic character sets (Latin alphabet No. 1) for the processing and storage of documents and their printing or conversion into hard copy.
Subsections 3 and 4 above refer to standards as they existed on 1 December 1997.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.4
.
The asymmetric cryptographic system shall provide for the issue of a signing key pair by means of which the transmitted documents are signed and their source identified.
The system shall also provide for the issue of an encryption key pair to protect the confidentiality of the documents being transmitted. Confidentiality is ensured by encrypting the data by means of a randomly variable secret key generated by the symmetric cryptographic system. That key is itself encrypted with the public key that forms part of the encryption key pair of the intended recipient, namely, the registry office, which decrypts the transmitted data with its private key.
The system shall also include a hash function by means of which the registry office can verify the integrity and completeness of the documents it receives.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.5
.
Each signing and encryption key pair shall consist of a unique and indissociable pair of keys, one public and the other private, that are linked mathematically. Each public key shall be referred to in a certificate which serves to bind the key to the key pair holder.
The identity of the holder is verified by means of his public key and his signature verification certificate.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.6
.
The signature verification certificate and encryption certificate shall be in electronic form and shall include the following information:
(
1
)
the distinguishing name of the key pair and certificate holder which consists of his name combined with a unique code;
(
2
)
the signature verification public key or the encryption public key, as the case may be, together with the certificate serial number, version, issue date and expiry date; and
(
3
)
the name of the issuer, the characteristics of the algorithm and the resulting hash code used in delivering the certificate.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.7
.
The encryption certificates shall be entered in an electronic directory and kept up-to-date by the registrar of the registry office.
The directory shall include the serial numbers of the signature verification certificates and encryption certificates that have been suspended, revoked or withdrawn. The form generation software automatically verifies the validity of a certificate when documents are transmitted.

.
15.11
.
The notary verifying an identity shall record the information required by the registrar, including the verification code selected by the applicant that only he can use to identify himself to the registrar.
The notary shall draw up an act
en minute
in which he certifies that the identity of the person has been established, that the identity has been verified for the purpose of obtaining key pairs and certificates for the electronic transmission of documents to the registry office and, where applicable, that the person whose identity has been established intends to send applications on his own behalf or that he is authorized to send applications on behalf of another person who is named.
He shall convey the recorded information and the certified facts to the registrar electronically in a transmission signed and encrypted by means of key pairs that provide at least the same degree of security and reliability as those issued by the registrar.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.12
.
Where a person who applies for key pairs and certificates has been a holder of key pairs and certificates in the preceding year, his identify verification code may be used to verify his identity providing he intends to send applications only on his own behalf.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.13
.
The registrar shall send to the person whose identity has been verified, in separate deliveries, 2 parts of a token with which the person shall generate his signing key pair from his workstation or chip card. That person shall generate his signing key pair within 15 days of receipt of the first part of the token and ensure the confidentiality thereof in the meantime.
The person shall also choose a password to be used primarily to initiate the process of signing, encrypting and transmitting electronic data.
The public key required to verify the holder’s signature shall be sent to the registrar. The transmission is done electronically and is automatic.

Where the holder is authorized to transmit applications on behalf of another person, that information shall be linked electronically, or cross-referenced, to his signature verification certificate.
The holder shall, before transmitting documents electronically, notify the registrar of the receipt of his key pairs and certificates in order that the registrar may activate them.
O.C. 755-99, s. 2
.
15.15
.
A valid certificate may be renewed before its expiry date for the same term as that for which it was issued. The renewal shall be effected by means of a link-up between the holder’s and the registrar’s computer systems within the following time limits:
(
1
)
within 2 months of the certificate’s expiry date, where it was issued for one year;
(
