STORK 2.0 launches 4 real-life pilots

STORK 2.0 (Secure idenTity acrOss boRders linKed 2.0), a project working towards the creation of a single framework and infrastructure for cross-border electronic identification and authentication (eID) in the EU and Associated Countries, today announces the launch of the real-life pilots eLearning Qualifications, eBanking, Public Services for Business and eHealth. These services are aligned with the objective of STORK 2.0 to improve the access and use of public and private cross-border online services for citizens living, working and studying anywhere in the EU.

Within STORK 2.0., LIST's researchers work in close collaboration with the Centre des Technologies de l'Information de l'Etat (CTIE). Together they are more specifically involved in the "Public Services for Business" pilot whose ambition is that businesses dealing with public administrations in other countries should be able to access on-line eGovernment services as easily as domestic businesses. As other consortium project's members, LIST and CTIE will pilot the eID infrastructure that provides such cross-border interoperability and that has been implemented by STORK 2.0. They will pilot a service that lets a foreign owner of a company based in Luxembourg using his national identity credentials, for example a Belgian eID card, and then request an official Criminal record certificate for the company.
