katseandmeid

Katseandmeid is a term that refers to a digital data storage system used in Estonia during the digital signature process. It is a secure environment that safeguards data against unauthorized access. This system allows users to manage data by virtual eye-witness and use personally identified data storage services. The purpose of Katseandmeid is to prove that a document has been in someone's possession at a given time, similar to a dead-letter box.

The digital data storage system is integrated into the Estonian public service system, allowing people to use its services for secure data storage. Access to stored data is restricted and can only be granted by the data owner. The information stored in the Katseandmeid is deleted automatically once it fulfills its purpose, as per the original retention policies of the owner.

This concept involves various principles, such as function, data storage, access restrictions, authorized personnel, knowledge, and time. The user guides individuals on how to proceed in order to make use of this digital storage system effectively. It's primarily popular and utilized among Estonian residents due to its integration with the general services. Outside Estonia, its use is largely limited to scientific, educational pursuits and scholarly research regarding advanced electronic governance methodologies.

Katseandmeid is one form of tackling a digitally advanced alternative to physical methods to store and fix controls and commitments, addressing digital rights for equally existing data life cycles so that confidentiality and transparency are respected.
