By default, a digital signature contains a date and time. The digitally-authorized time stamp indicates the contents of the document existed at that time and have not been changed since then. You can configure a new time stamp authority and add it to the list of time stamp servers. The time stamp will show on the Date/Time tab in the Signature Properties dialog box. Otherwise, the current date and time of your computer will be used instead.
