eIDASsertifikaatioina

eIDASsertifikaatioina refers to the certification of electronic identification schemes under the eIDAS Regulation. The eIDAS Regulation, which stands for electronic Identification, Authentication and Trust Services, is a European Union regulation that establishes a framework for electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the European internal market.

Under eIDAS, Member States can notify their national electronic identification schemes to the European Commission. Once a scheme is notified, it is recognized across all EU Member States. This means that if a citizen from one EU country uses their national eID card to log into a service in another EU country, that service must accept the eID as valid, provided it has been notified under eIDAS.

The certification process ensures that these notified eID schemes meet certain security and interoperability standards. This is crucial for building trust and enabling secure cross-border digital transactions. The regulation aims to facilitate the use of eIDs for accessing public services, such as filing taxes or registering a business, from any EU Member State. The goal is to create a seamless and secure digital single market for citizens and businesses.
