PKIgovernment services certificate
PKIgovernment refers to the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) of the Dutch government. This system organises the issuance and management of digital certificates under authority of the Dutch state. PKIgovernment offers a high reliability level for all certificate types.
PKIgovernment certificates are issued by certificate service providers: Trusted Service Providers (TSP). Digidentity as TSP supplies certificates.
Certified by the government
With a PKIgovernment services certificate you will gain access to the digital window of the government via Standard Business Reporting (SBR). Fast, easy and reliable. With this certificate, you are recognised as reliable sender and you have a secure connection with the electronic mail box of the government.
Safe information exchange
Every company that is connected to Digiport via a PKIgovernment services certificate can digitally exchange information with the government. That is very useful if your company, for example, regularly has to supply information to the government. A PKIgovernment services certificate ensures that the data is sent safely to the correct government organisations. But also the other way around: information of a government organisation is sent to the correct company.
Application for SBR
With SBR you can compile and supply digitally standardised financial reports. In order to use SBR, you require a PKIgovernment services certificate.

Version 1.3
Last update: 13 April 2017
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.
