Secure electronic interactions are the backbone of an economy fit for the digital age. However, the current European framework for digital identity solutions, provided by the eIDAS Regulation, has several shortcomings that have rendered it outdated. Most notably, the regulation has a strong focus on public authorities and works on a voluntary basis for Member States, which in practice means that a big percentage of the European population is not covered.
In view of this, in June 2021, the European Commission made a new proposal for a revised framework, known as eIDAS 2.0. This proposal addresses the shortcomings of the original regulation and proposes to create of a European Digital Identity Wallet (EDIW) valid for public and private services and readily available to European citizens and businesses alike.
In this new CERRE Tech, Media, Telecom issue paper, Research Fellow Christoph Busch scrutinises the changing regulatory framework for digital identity solutions in the platform economy. The issue paper identifies vital regulatory issues and makes policy recommendations for an innovative and competitive identity ecosystem that may benefit all players.
The issue paper identifies and gives recommendations on four main issue areas:
