New EU Legislation Provides Framework for Identity Management

TYPE: Combined Session DATE: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 TIME: 15:00-16:00 LOCATION: AMMERSEE 1

The European Union has issued extensive legislation regarding the "electronic signature". In practice, this is a very limited view on identity & access management. In 2012, the EU has published draft legislation regarding "trust services" in general. This means that in the near future, there will be extensive, specific legal rules regarding:

trust schemes
electronic signatures
electronic seals
electronic time stamps
electronic documents
electronic delivery services
website authentication
electronic certificates

Marten Voulon will provide an overview of the expected legislation in light of the Dutch IAM systems DigiD and eRecognition ("eHerkenning"), and in light of the hack of Dutch CSP DigiNotar.
