Hi EJBCA users, If you are running a trust center using EJBCA, you might be interested in participating in this EU survey. Cheers, Tomas -------- Original Message -------- Subject: ENISA's Trust Services Providers Survey Date: Sun, 23 Jun 2013 11:09:34 +0000 From: Manel Medina <Man...@en...> To: in...@pr... <in...@pr...> Dear Trust Service Provider, As you are probably aware, the European Commission presented in July 2012 a proposal for a new Regulation on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions(http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=COM:2012:0238:FIN:en:PDF), which will supersede the current Directive 1999/93/EC on a Community framework for electronic signatures. Art. 15 of the proposed Regulation establishes certain provisions regarding the security requirements applicable to trust service providers. In order to facilitate the implementation of this provision, as well as to generally support trust service providers (TSP) in the introduction of best security practices, the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) is working on 2013 on a series of studies on the security aspects of trust service providers issuing electronic certificates, as well as security and interoperability aspects specific to the new trust services foreseen in the proposed Regulation. ENISA is running a survey about the security mechanisms used by TSP in Europe, and their interoperability. This survey is part of the project and is addressed to every TSP offering, or intending to offer in the future, any of the services identified in the proposed Regulation: ·Electronic certificates, including e-Signature ones ·Electronic time stamps ·Electronically signed documents storage or management ·Electronic delivery services ·Validation of electronic signatures ·Longtime preservation of electronic signatures The survey is structured following these topics, and you only have to answer the questions related to the services you provide. You can fill in the survey in the following URL: https://www.enisa.europa.eu/trust-services-in-eu <https://www.enisa.europa.eu/trust-services-in-eu> It will take 10-30 minutes to complete the survey, depending on the number of services you provide or will do. Please do so at your earliest convenience, before the 14^th of July, but preferably before the 1^st of July. The results of the survey will be anonymous, but you can optionally introduce your organizational contact data. Doing so will enable us to include your organization in the acknowledgements of the final reports, if you indicate that you wish so. |
