    1                        A bill to be entitled                      
    2         An act relating to electronic signatures associated
    3         with total loss vehicles and vessels; amending s.
    4         319.30, F.S.; requiring insurance companies to
    5         implement certain control processes and procedures for
    6         certain electronic signatures; deleting a requirement
    7         that electronic signatures on odometer disclosures
    8         submitted through insurance companies be executed in a
    9         specified manner; providing an effective date.
   10          
   11  Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Florida:
   12  
   13         Section 1. Paragraph (d) of subsection (3) of section
   14  319.30, Florida Statutes, is amended to read:
   15         319.30 Definitions; dismantling, destruction, change of
   16  identity of motor vehicle, vessel, or mobile home; salvage.—
   17         (3)
   18         (d) An electronic signature that is consistent with chapter
   19  668 satisfies any signature required under this subsection.
   20  However, insurance companies must implement control processes
   21  and procedures acceptable to the department to ensure adequate
   22  identity verification and preservation, disposition, integrity,
   23  security, confidentiality, and auditability of electronic
   24  signatures, except that an electronic signature on an odometer
   25  disclosure submitted through an insurance company must be
   26  executed using an electronic signature, as defined in s.
   27  668.003(4), which uses a system providing an Identity Assurance
   28  Level, Authenticator Assurance Level, and Federation Assurance
   29  Level, as described in the National Institute of Standards and
   30  Technology Special Publication 800-63-3, as of December 1, 2017,
   31  which are equivalent to or greater than Level 2, for each level,
   32  for a certificate of destruction or for a salvage certificate of
   33  title.
   34         Section 2. This act shall take effect July 1, 2026.
