Abstract

With the world shifting toward technology and relying heavily on digital perspective in various fields, previous methods of issuing and distributing certificates have become inadequate. Therefore, developing advanced online certification systems that enhance its availability, security, and effectiveness of this process. This paper aims at exploring the benefits of online certification in today’s society. EZCert is a new online certification system and in this paper, we assess the current trends and challenges, coupled with Best Performance analysis to identify how EZCert is a new system certification. This also underlines that the system contributes to increasing transparency, reducing the administrative load, and the issuance of secure and certified certificates. Moreover, it examines how through EZCert, the organization can impact the future of online sources, certification and the sphere in general. These reflections have important implications for understanding the potentials of digital certification more broadly and for the acceptance and use of EZCert as a technological approach for company and user mobility in the digital era.
