Top Reasons to use STORK: Easy-to-deploy solution for the provision and consumption of secure identity services of national and foreign citizens. Access to a Reference interoperability technical solution for the mutual recognition of eID at European level. It can be used as a service or as tool: Flexible interoperable solution that can handle any type of electronic identities and assurance levels.

ECAS-STORK integration The problem MS officials and civil servants from all over Europe need to access EC corporate applications Use of ECAS credentials since national eIDs are not recognised by the EC applications. A first proof of concept demonstrating the integration of ECAS with STORK project was funded by IDABC programme and executed in 2011. The current situation ECAS-STORK integration already in production mode In use already by CIRCABC and the eJustice Portal

ECAS-STORK integration Beneficiaries and anticipated benefits European Institutions and Agencies will benefit from ECAS integration with STORK with a minimal impact, by accepting higher assurance eID mechanisms from the MS and by increasing the trust and confidence on the user's identities For MS's public administrations, consistency is increased since the same credentials are used to access both national information systems and European Commission information systems. Levels of security are aligned as well with those provided by MS.

Action 1.9: DSS tool This action supports development of a software tool DSS (Digital Signature Software) that creates and verifies legally binding electronic signatures. The tool makes use of the MS Trust Status Lists (TSLs) to check the trustworthiness of the signing certificates. Open source. Available to all MS and for any electronic procedure.
