Principles and guidance on eID interoperability for online platforms – finalisation and way ahead

Register Now

This workshop aims to discuss and finalise, together with stakeholders, the draft Principles and guidance on eID interoperability for online platforms. DG CNECT is organising this event to discuss and finalise the draft Principles and guidance on eID interoperability for online platforms which are jointly developed with stakeholders.

The objective of the initiative is to encourage online platforms to recognise other eID means — in particular those notified under the eIDAS Regulation — that offer the same reassurance as their own.

The draft principles and guidance were recently published for open consultation with all interested stakeholders. They build on the ideas collected during a workshop held on this topic on 24 April 2014, as well as on further feedback received from stakeholders who volunteered to support the drafting process. Following the end of the consultation period (10 November 2017) the Commission will consolidate the inputs, embracing the views and contributions received from stakeholders, and will publish a new draft version.

The aim of the workshop will be to:

  • – To discuss and finalise the Principles and guidance for eID interoperability for online platforms;
  • – To showcase and discuss how the principles and guidance can be applied;
  • – To exchange views on the way ahead.

Marta Ienco, Head of Government and Regulatory Affairs, GSMA Identity Programme will participate in the panel discussion on ‘How can the principles be applied?’
