Digidentity

eHerkenning is similar to DigiD. Just like citizens can use DigiD to login with the government agencies, companies, entrepreneurs and professionals can do that with eHerkenning.

An eHerkenning tool is person-bound. It cannot be transferred to someone else, such as a colleague. As user of eHerkenning, you can be authorised by your supervisor to act on behalf of your company with your service providers. 1 or more authorisations are registered when applying for a tool.

Physical identification

An eHerkenning tool can be requested online. For an eHerkenning tool with assurance level 3 and 4, a face-to-face check is also required. This happens at our office or at the customer's location.

Signatures on contracts, employment agreements, purchase agreements, leases, living wills, tenders, policies, building plans and other documents no longer need to be entered on paper. These documents can be attested by a digital signature.

By means of eSGNG by Digidentity, it is possible to sign PDF documents digitally in a legally valid way. To do so, you can use our eSGNG app, or you can integrate the functionality into your own workflow.

Benefits

Ease: The signatory can conduct his or her business fully digitally at any location and at any time. The signatory can simply sign on his or her mobile phone, laptop or desktop computer, or tablet. eSGNG allows for multiple signatories.
Cost savings: Thanks to the digital signature, there will be no unnecessary costs for paper, administrative acts and mail.
Time saving: Reduce operational costs and put an end to manual processes. This way, you will no longer need to send prompts or follow-up by phone: If a signatory still lingers over your contract, you can send them a fast reminder through eSGNG. This will save you time and bother.
Safe: We fully comply with the latest security standards.
Legal validity: The qualified digital signature is 100% legally valid and complies with the electronic signature requirements in conformity with eIDAS and article 3:15a of the Dutch Civil Code.
Environmentally friendly: No paper, no mail.

What is an electronic or digital signature?

An electronic or digital signature is an electronic equivalent of a hand-written signature. An electronic signature consists of electronic data that are attached to a digital document.

The purpose of an electronic or digital signature is to establish:

the identity of the sender (authenticity and identification) and
the invariability of the information sent (integrity).

The eSGNG app

You can download the eSGNG app on a tablet from the app store (and soon, it will also become available as a web application). Once you have signed in with your Digidentity account, you can start using eSGNG right away.

Integrating digital signatures into the workflow

Alternatively, you can choose to integrate digital signatures into the existing workflow of your company or organisation. Send, sign and share immediately from the applications that you are already using.

We provide a user-friendly integration of digital signatures into your own application. This may be a portal, a mobile app, document management system (DMS) or any other application in which documents need to be signed in a straightforward and legally valid way.

So:

No separate application, but entering digital signatures directly from the trusted custom applications

Legal validity

According to European and Dutch legislation, there are three types of electronic signatures:

The ordinary electronic signature (which we call Basic) You can use an ordinary electronic signature to sign your insurance policy. Along with the fact that you pay the premium and that the insurer has your address details, this type offers sufficient reliability (and is thus legally valid).
The advanced electronic signature (which we call Advanced) An advanced electronic signature is connected to the signatory in a unique way and enables identification of the signatory. This type of signature involves extra checks to verify that the signatory is the right person. This signature is used, for instance, for filing your tax return.
The qualified electronic signature (which we call Qualified) A qualified electronic signature is a signature with a qualified certificate. Such a certificate is a digital file that has been attached to the original document. There are special authorities that issue these certificates, the so-called Trusted Service Providers (TSP’s) or certification service providers. Like Digidentity, for example. The Dutch government makes use of a certificate that is issued by Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-Overheid. Agentschap Telecom monitors the certification service providers. Issuing this type of signature even involves a visual check (face to face) to verify that the person concern is who he/she says he/she is.

Out of the various types of electronic signatures, only the qualified electronic signature is legally equated with the hand-written signature under European law. Parties that claim that the signature is false will need to prove this themselves. This does not apply to the other types of electronic signatures: in case of a legal conflict, the signatory himself will need to prove that the signature is legally valid.

eIDAS and the dutch civil code

In 2016, a new European regulation came into force, officially named Regulation (EU) No. 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council, of 23 July 2014, on electronic identification and trust services in the internal market and repealing Directive 1999/93/EC. Quite a mouth full, and in practice the new regulation is referred to as eIDAS. This complex act regulates a vast number of things, but among others, it aligns the use and the value of electronic signatures throughout the European Union. You can read more about eIDAS here

As a result of eIDAS, the Dutch Civil Code has been amended.

eIDAS

This arrangement is known as the eIDAS Regulation. eIDAS is the acronym for ‘Electronic Identification and Trust Services (for electronic transactions in the Internal Market)’, referring to the eIDAS Regulation no. 910/2014 of the European Parliament.

European member states have agreed to use the same concepts, arrangements and infrastructure with regard to access to online services. This ensures that the levels of reliability of the login schemes used within the European Union are aligned. The various arrangements have been enshrined in the eIDAS Regulation.

This regulation promotes cross-border services and trade between citizens and businesses in the European member states.

The eIDAS Regulation became effective on 17 September 2014. As from September 2018, the mutual recognition of notified member state eIDs is mandatory.

Digital services

eIDAS renders digital services accessible to Europeans residing in the Netherlands. Expats, foreign students and seasonal workers do not need to apply for a Dutch DigiD, but can log in using their own eID instead, for instance to apply for a parking permit or to inform their municipality they have moved.

National login schemes or eIDs

In the Netherlands, we use DigiD, eHerkenning or Idensys. The Fins use a Mobiilivarmenne or FINeID; in Denmark, one can log in using a NemID; and in Spain, citizens use a Documento Nacional de Identidad electrónico (DNIe).

Incoming and outgoing traffic

The regulation consists of two parts, i.e. incoming and outgoing traffic.

Incoming traffic

European citizens using their national login scheme to log in to Dutch service providers. For instance, expats can already log in to the portal of the municipality of Wassenaar by means of their own national login ID in order to access their personal data. This section of the regulation is mandatory for Dutch public organisation.

Outgoing traffic

Dutch citizens logging in to service providers elsewhere in Europe using a notified login scheme (recognised by Europe). This part of the regulation is not mandatory However, DigiD, eHerkenning and Idensys intend to have their login schemes notified. This will render them suitable for logging in to all European government services.

Regulation concerns the entire public sector

Since all member states must implement the mandatory section of the regulation, so – obviously – must the Netherlands. The public sector is at the forefront of this development, as the European measure is binding for all public organisations (i.e. those offering digital services involving online authentication and accepting login schemes with 'substantial' and 'high' levels of reliability). Apart from this, private organisations performing public tasks likewise need to comply with the regulation. Thus, the regulation concerns ministries, implementing organisations such as RDW and UWV, municipalities, provinces, district water boards, but also private independent administrative bodies (ZBOs), academic hospitals and pension funds.

On 25 July 2017, the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs issued an administrative letter on eIDAS (only Dutch). This letter informs 808 public organisations and private organisations performing a public duty regarding the eIDAS regulation. If your organisation received this letter, you are obliged to comply with this European regulation.

What does your organisation need to do to comply with the obligation?

In the Netherlands, you can comply with the eIDAS obligation for online access through the eHerkenning | Idensys system. This means that by connecting to an eHerkenning | Idensys broker you will comply with the obligation to grant EU citizens online access to your service. As accredited brokers, we are able to arrange this connection for you.

Are you already connected to eHerkenning | Idensys? Then you are part-way to complying with the measure.

Are you participating in DigiD? In that case, we can arrange a connection to eHerkenning | Idensys for you.

Please contact us to find out which steps you need to take.

What is the advantage of the eIDAS regulation for my organisation?

Prior to the eIDAS regulation, your customer service was tasked with the administrative processing of European citizens, consumers and company representatives. These administrative processes were often long-winded and complex compared to the digital services that were already being provided for Dutch citizens, consumers and company representatives. Thanks to the eIDAS regulation, public services providers will be able to render services to European citizens, consumers and company representatives more easily and more cheaply.

Trust services

The European Union's eIDAS legislation goes beyond electronic identification.

Trust services are electronic services, usually provided for remuneration, which comprise the following:

creating, verifying and validating electronic signatures, electronic seals or electronic time stamps, services for electronic registered delivery and certificates related to those services; or
creating, verifying and validating certificates for website authentication; or
preserving electronic signatures, seals or certificates related to those services (article 3, under 16, eIDAS Regulation).

Trust services are understood to mean:

electronic signatures (also called digital signature, e-signature or e-sign);
electronic seals;
electronic time stamps;
services for registered delivery;
electronic certificates for website authentication.

With regard to trust services, a distinction is made between qualified and non-qualified services. In principle, a non-qualified supplier is any supplier offering such a service. A qualified provider is a provider that offers services with a higher level of reliability.

The change that probably impacts on the providers of such services most is the new notification requirement and duty of care. As from 1 July 2016, providers of both qualified and non-qualified trust services are to report incidents with a significant impact to the supervisory body (the Authority for Consumers and Markets – the ACM) and, where appropriate, also to the Dutch Data Protection Authority (AP) and the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). Moreover, there are enhanced supervision and security requirements. For instance, qualified trust service providers are to carry out annual security audits and submit their results to the supervisory body.

Are you a trust service provider and do you want to find out what this means to your organisation and which measures you need to take? Please contact us. We are happy to help you!

In some circumstances, we may anonymise personal data (so that it can no longer, in any manner possible, be associated with or be re-identified with you).
YOUR RIGHTS

You have the right to:

Request access to the personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”) we hold about you. This means that you receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you, so that you can check that we are lawfully processing it.

Request correction (i.e. rectification) of the personal data that we hold about you. This means you can have any incomplete or inaccurate personal data we hold about you corrected. However, we may need to verify the accuracy of the new personal data you provide to us.

Request erasure of your personal data. This means that, you can ask us to delete personal data we hold about you. Please note however that the right to erasure is not absolute, and we may not be able to fulfil (a part of) your request if we are required to keep (certain) personal data by law or in connection to a contract with you. We will in our response to your request explain this to you in more detail where applicable.

Object to processing of the personal data we hold about you in cases where we rely on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms.

If we have responded to your request for objection, you also have the right to ask us to delete your personal data.

Request restriction of processing of the personal data we hold about you. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
1. if you want us to establish the personal data’s accuracy;
2. if our use of the personal data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it;
3. if you need us to hold the personal data even though we no longer require it, as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or
4. if you have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer (i.e. data portability) of the personal data we hold about you to yourself or a third party of your choice. We will provide to you, or that third party, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Please note that this right only applies to digital information that you have provided us with, either on the basis of your consent, or where we needed to process the information in the performance of a contract we have with you.

WITHDRAWAL OF YOUR CONSENT

In those cases where we rely on your consent for the lawful processing of your data, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time. If we have no other legal ground on the basis of which we may process this data, we will discontinue processing it once you have withdrawn your consent.

Please note that any processing we carried out before the withdrawal of your consent remains lawful. Also, if you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case when you withdraw your consent.

If you wish to exercise any of these legal rights, please contact us via the contact information in Paragraph 1.

NO FEE IS USUALLY REQUIRED

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other legal rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

WHAT WE MAY NEED FROM YOU

If and when you make a request with respect to any of your rights as described above (i.e. access, correction, erasure, objection, restriction or transfer) we may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and to ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other legal rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

TIME LIMIT TO RESPOND

We aim to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally, it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or if you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you of such a delay within one month and keep you updated.

Summary of the Notifications

May 2016

Vulnerabilities found in the 2-factor authentication of the Idensys App and the website during the pilot phase. The website was vulnerable for a brute force attack on the PUK code. The app was vulnerable for cloning of the PKI certificates. This was only possible through jail breaking/rooting and illegal possession of the smartphone. The vulnerabilities have been fixed. Rewards were applicable. Reported by Jaap van Ginkel c.s. (UvA).

April 2016

A vulnerability was found in the website. It was possible to inject (SQL/Java) codes within the web application (sub domain). The vulnerability was fixed quickly. A reward was applicable and this has been paid. Reported by Serge van Haag (VulnerabilityHunt).

October 2015

Reporting a SSL vulnerability (support of protocols that are no longer safe). This was a known vulnerability and it was in the process of being fixed. Even though it was not necessary to pay a reward for this, an amount was paid to 'CARE' charity. Reported by Joost van Hassel.

Digidentity is a certified identity provider for the GOV.UK Verify service, and as such is listed by GOV.UK as a certified company: GOV.UK website.

Via Digidentity:

Users can register for a Digidentity account to assert their identity.
Users with an asserted identity can access services available for GOV.UK Verify.
Users can expect the highest standards of authentication and security available.

To provide this service to users, Digidentity ensures that the requirements and standards of the UK Government in GPG (Good Practice Guide) 44 and GPG 45 are met.

Once a user has successfully verified for an identity account for GOV.UK Verify LoA1 or LoA2, it can be used to access associated LoA1 or LoA2 services provided by the GOV.UK Verify initiative.

How the service works

Registration

Via the GOV.UK pre-registration questions, Digidentity can be chosen as the identity provider. Once chosen, users are automatically directed to the registration process of Digidentity. The registration process will be per the chosen LoA. Users are required to accept the terms and conditions, without accepting these it is not possible to register.

Authentication

When logging into their profile, or when requiring access to GOV.UK Verify services, users are required to make use of the 2-factor authentication. Users can opt for SMS or by using the Digidentity Authenticator app available. Once authenticated users can access services and/or their profile to maintain it.

IPV

Identity proofing and verification is at the core of creating a digital identity. The information required to verify an identity is dependent on the Level of Assurance. The higher the level, the more assurance is required.

Account Maintenance

Users are in control of their own identity account, and can also make changes where needed e.g. change of name because of marriage. Changes are always verified to ensure maximum protection and security, and for fraud prevention.

Registration

Making an account

Once directed to the Digidentity process users are required to make a username, password and to confirm their email address. Once this is complete the user needs to choose their form of 2- factor authentication, e.g. SMS. 2-Factor authentication is always required to secure the account for GOV.UK verify.

Entering personal details

Users are required to enter their personal details, including; name, date of birth, gender (optional) and address. Sometimes name history and/or address history is required. Once this is entered the details are confirmed and used to collect data from a credit file. The data collected is NOT a credit reference, and has NO impact on the credit reference. The data is used to check and verify information for the process of verification, along with data/document checking services provided by the Government.

Identity proofing

Depending on the Level of Assurance users will be required to provide evidence of the identity. Users registering for LoA2 are required to reach a higher level of assurance and will need to supply a combination of evidences which include (but not limited to): UK passport, Non-UK passport, Photo card ID (Government issued), Photo card driving licence, mobile phone contract, bank transaction £0.00 and knowledge based verification (questions generated from the data). Users can also choose to provide their details using our mobile app. Since photos are required of the document, and selfies too, more assurance is attained per document. Users who provide a UK Passport with the app therefore, need only add one more piece of evidence e.g. bank transaction £0.00.

Completion

Once the process of verification is completed the user will be redirected to the service they initially required. To access services of GOV.UK in the future users can use their existing account credentials, and once successfully logged in, will be redirected to the service required.

Revalidation

During the lifespan of the account it is necessary to revalidate details within 180 days of the registration date. Revalidation is a requirement per the Good Practice Guide set out by GOV.UK. Revalidation ensures the integrity of the data within the user account. If the account revalidation occurs users may be asked to take steps to update their information e.g. passport is expired and so add a new one.

Support

Users requiring support during the process are able to contact us:
