Electronic Authentication with App
The essential workflow for deploying Qrypto is to integrate with the Qrypto Generator API. The Qrypto Secure QR Code can be generated and seamlessly added to your documents to enable easy validation.
For validation, end-users can install the Document Validator App. You can try the following steps to install it on your mobile phone:
On your mobile, visit https://validation.qrypto.ee and follow one of these 3 methods :
- (a) Click on the Use Camera button to scan the code directly using the browser camera or
- (b) Upload Image/PDF file button to upload the image or PDF file containing the code or
- (c) Install the app
- After the app has been installed, scan the code above
The organization’s private key digitally signs the secure QR code. The keys are generated initially as part of the setup. The mobile App and the web validation mechanism uses the organization’s public key to validate the digital signature. Further, the entire code is explicitly compressed to create the smallest possible QR Code size.

You can sign up for free to try the API.
2 Types of Qrypto Secure QR Codes
Qrypto Secure QR Codes are of two types:
- Primary Data Codes (PDC): These are self- contained codes which encapsulate all the information within the code itself. The recommended capacity of these codes is about 2,000 characters – large enough for a textual bank account statement like the sample given above.
- Extended Data Codes (EDC): These codes can also contain attachments like images and PDF files. The attachments are encrypted and stored as BLOBS in object-store. The decryption key and their fingerprints are stored within the QR. This prevents any subsequent tampering of the codes.
- Both the codes can be revoked or chained with a new code.
