Presentations in this session:

• Presentation by Samuel Rinnetmäki, CTO, Findynet Cooperative: Trust, security, and privacy in digital wallet ecosystems

In this session we will dive into different aspects of digital trust in wallet ecosystems. We cover how the revised eIDAS legislation protects the users of digital wallets with relying-party registration and other means. We also explain why additional trust infrastructure is needed for the verifier of digital credentials to establish trust with the credentials’ issuers. In this session we will address topics such as:

• How different technologies help keep information safe, secure, and trustworthy
• Selective Disclosure and Zero-Knowledge Proofs
• Lists of Trust Services and Trust Service Providers
• Wallet-relying party access certificates and registration
• Ecosystem Rulebooks and Trust Registries

When implementing applications for Digital Identity related services within organizations, it is of the utmost importance to look beyond technical specifications. Where does it potentially become ethically problematic for an end user or organization? And where can ethical values like autonomy, privacy and safety actually be promoted? An ID wallet (MD Operator) offers many new possibilities for service delivery within many different domains. When introducing a new technology, it’s essential not only to ask: What is possible? but also: What is legally permitted? And most importantly: Should we want this? This is also a key part of the MyData vision. An example of an ethical consideration is the risk of deepening the digital divide. Although one of the aims of using an ID wallet is to improve the quality of services, there is a risk that certain target groups may not be able to benefit from these advantages. Vulnerable groups with limited digital skills may struggle to use the technology, even though they are often the ones who would benefit most from high-quality services. During a public-private partnership InnoValor developed a digital identity & ethics blueprint, which has been validated by (multiple) public service providers. The presentation would inform the audience about the ethics of digital identity and provide practical tools for implementing wallet technology in an ethically responsible way. Moreover, it provides insight into the perspective of citizens and end users and how to ensure that your organization pays enough attention to this group.
