룩셈부르크 디지털화부처와 룩셈부르크 대학교의 디지털 전환 가속화
룩셈부르크 디지털화부처는 공공 행정의 디지털 전환과 행정 절차의 디지털화를 강화하기 위해 룩셈부르크 대학교의 보안, 안정성, 신뢰를 위한 학문교류 센터 (SnT)와 4년간의 협력 협정을 맺었다. 첫 번째 협업 프로젝트는 디지털 아이덴티티에 초점을 맞출 것이다.
The four-year collaboration agreement between the Ministry for Digitalisation and the SnT will contribute to and complement the work done to achieve the ministry’s objectives of interoperability, digital inclusion and GovTech solutions in the public sector.
Implementing digital identities
The first concrete collaborative research project to be realised as part of the agreement will focus on use cases for digital identities. The project entitled “Digital Identities for Luxembourg” will help further position Luxembourg as a digital forerunner and shape the implementation of digital identities in the European Union. It will analyse the implications of digital identities and digital wallets from a strategic and technical perspective to see how they can be used to create secure identities for citizens where personal data is effectively protected. Trusted technologies in this field could be revolutionary for public administration as well as for sectors such as healthcare and banking.
We are proud to help the Grand Duchy be at the forefront of European innovation in the development of digital identities.
Today, the state is entrusted with issuing physical identity documents. “In the transition to completely digital processes, the state should also take the responsibility of implementing reliable and secure solutions that make it possible to conduct procedures and transactions online,” says Marc Hansen, Minister Delegate for Digitalisation.
European digital identity wallet
The project takes place in the context of the European Commission’s initiative for a European digital identity wallet. Its objective is to support the government in its implementation.
“Inefficient management and exchange of personal data reduces competitiveness and complicates regulatory compliance,” comments SnT Director Björn Ottersten. “This is estimated to block approximately 3% of Luxembourg’s GDP. We are proud to help the Grand Duchy unlock this potential and be at the forefront of European innovation in the development of digital identities.”
