SI-PASS

The SI-PASS (Slovenian eIDAS node and integrated services) action (2017-SI-IA-0037), a predecessor of the SI-PASS 2.0 project, has

• built a production ready Slovenian eIDAS node (SI-PEPS) that is compliant with the latest version of the eIDAS technical specifications,
• enabled attributes to be associated with electronic identities for cross-border use through the eIDAS node in four existing public and one private cross-border e-services, and
• integrated those e-services with the eIDAS node.

The services belonged to the eHealth, intellectual property systems, e-Pension, public legal records, and business transactions domains.

As part of the eIDAS node development, the action also integrated the node to the Slovenian SI-PASS platform consisting of the SI-CAS (Slovenian central authentication system) and SI-CeS (Central eSignature system) systems. SI-CAS is an existing Slovenian central service for identity verification, while SI-CeS implements server-based electronic signatures.

The services integration allow the Slovenian service providers to accept eIDs issued from any Member State and enable cross-border transactions compliant with the eIDAS Regulation. Regarding specifically eSignature, the action enabled the mutual recognition and cross-border interoperability of e-signatures by the public and private sector entities relying on the central server based system for e-signature SI-CeS.

The project started on 1.1.2018 and successfully finished its work on 30.4.2019.
