eIDAS In Practice - From Regulation to Implementation

eIDAS is identity federation within a trust framework on an unprecedented scale. In 2018 member states of the European Union will be required to recognise the eID's of other member states under the eIDAS Regulation. Connectis is leading the transition towards a Digital Single Market through various successful projects, co-financed by the European Union's Connecting Europe Facility.

Connectis already aided around 100 Dutch municipalities open up hundreds of services to citizens from other EU countries in an eIDAS-sustainable way. This experience provides lots of success stories, but also many lessons learned and the foresight of several hurdles ahead that we need to take, both on local, national and international levels.

Key Takeaways:

• eIDAS is already happening - don't wait, get started!
• Identity Federation requires expert knowledge and complex infrastructures - eIDAS is Identity Federation on an unprecedented scale.
• Many (other) parties and roles are involved and many more need to be recognised and adhered to to get involved.
• Hands-on experience is needed to evolve and mature this trust framework and its operations.
• There's some serious hurdles ahead that we need to deal with collaboratively.
• The good news is: it already works!
