Article 8
Assurance levels of electronic_identification schemes
1. An electronic_identification scheme notified pursuant to Article 9(1) shall specify assurance levels low, substantial and/or high for electronic_identification means issued under that scheme.
2. The assurance levels low, substantial and high shall meet respectively the following criteria:
(a) | assurance level low shall refer to an electronic_identification means in the context of an electronic_identification scheme, which provides a limited degree of confidence in the claimed or asserted identity of a person, and is characterised with reference to technical specifications, standards and procedures related thereto, including technical controls, the purpose of which is to decrease the risk of misuse or alteration of the identity; |
(b) | assurance level substantial shall refer to an electronic_identification means in the context of an electronic_identification scheme, which provides a substantial degree of confidence in the claimed or asserted identity of a person, and is characterised with reference to technical specifications, standards and procedures related thereto, including technical controls, the purpose of which is to decrease substantially the risk of misuse or alteration of the identity; |
(c) | assurance level high shall refer to an electronic_identification means in the context of an electronic_identification scheme, which provides a higher degree of confidence in the claimed or asserted identity of a person than electronic_identification means with the assurance level substantial, and is characterised with reference to technical specifications, standards and procedures related thereto, including technical controls, the purpose of which is to prevent misuse or alteration of the identity. |
3. By 18 September 2015, taking into account relevant international standards and subject to paragraph 2, the Commission shall, by means of implementing acts, set out minimum technical specifications, standards and procedures with reference to which assurance levels low, substantial and high are specified for electronic_identification means for the purposes of paragraph 1.
Those minimum technical specifications, standards and procedures shall be set out by reference to the reliability and quality of the following elements:
(a) | the procedure to prove and verify the identity of natural or legal persons applying for the issuance of electronic_identification means; |
(b) | the procedure for the issuance of the requested electronic_identification means; |
(c) | the authentication mechanism, through which the natural or legal person uses the electronic_identification means to confirm its identity to a relying_party; |
(d) | the entity issuing the electronic_identification means; |
(e) | any other body involved in the application for the issuance of the electronic_identification means; and |
(f) | the technical and security specifications of the issued electronic_identification means. |
Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 48(2).
Article 9
Notification
1. The notifying Member State shall notify to the Commission the following information and, without undue delay, any subsequent changes thereto:
(a) | a description of the electronic_identification scheme, including its assurance levels and the issuer or issuers of electronic_identification means under the scheme; |
(b) | the applicable supervisory regime and information on the liability regime with respect to the following:
|
(c) | the authority or authorities responsible for the electronic_identification scheme; |
(d) | information on the entity or entities which manage the registration of the unique person_identification_data; |
(e) | a description of how the requirements set out in the implementing acts referred to in Article 12(8) are met; |
(f) | a description of the authentication referred to in point (f) of Article 7; |
(g) | arrangements for suspension or revocation of either the notified electronic_identification scheme or authentication or the compromised parts concerned. |
2. One year from the date of application of the implementing acts referred to in Articles 8(3) and 12(8), the Commission shall publish in the Official Journal of the European Union a list of the electronic_identification schemes which were notified pursuant to paragraph 1 of this Article and the basic information thereon.
3. If the Commission receives a notification after the expiry of the period referred to in paragraph 2, it shall publish in the Official Journal of the European Union the amendments to the list referred to in paragraph 2 within two months from the date of receipt of that notification.
4. A Member State may submit to the Commission a request to remove an electronic_identification scheme notified by that Member State from the list referred to in paragraph 2. The Commission shall publish in the Official Journal of the European Union the corresponding amendments to the list within one month from the date of receipt of the Member State’s request.
5. The Commission may, by means of implementing acts, define the circumstances, formats and procedures of notifications under paragraph 1. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 48(2).
Article 22
