Workshop - security aspects of Trust Service Providers

ENISA has been working on a series of studies on the topics of risk assessment, security requirements and incident management for trust service providers issuing electronic certificates, as well as the security aspects of the new trust services foreseen in the new EU Regulation (proposal published in July 2012).

The results of these studies will be presented at the workshop for trust service providers, which also aims to promote an open exchange of ideas among the different stakeholders involved in the trust services sector: providers of all types of trust services, supervisory authorities, regulators, standardization bodies, independent forums, etc.

Background:

In July 2012 the European Commission presented a proposal for a new Regulation on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions  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.
