In practice, however, there are sometimes considerable differences from state to state. While in Austria we now have 2.7 million digital identities, which represents an overwhelming level of acceptance in relation to the population, Germany, for example, is still a long way off. Then there are the trust centres that work closely with the government but do not follow eIDAS. The picture is similar in the business world. Banks, for example, have created their own identification options. We are still a long way from real harmonisation. This is not how digital Europe works. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-24732c4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"24732c4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Yet the legal framework and the requirements for electronic signatures and trust centres are precisely formulated in the eIDAS Regulation? <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a29b4f5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a29b4f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If it is all so clear, why has it not yet had the hoped-for widespread effect? There are currently even considerations at EU level to relax these regulations in order to perhaps promote acceptance. We at the ESD believe this is the wrong approach. It would lead to many individual national solutions. In my view, the regulations are not strict enough yet.

They have 1.3 million inhabitants and possession of a digital identity is required by law. Anyone can make a qualified electronic signature. And that shows a considerable difference in quality: if you just say, &#8220;Oh, please get a digital identity, that would be useful&#8221;, then it will be difficult. In the end, this only means that there is no serious digitalisation concept &#8211; and there cannot be. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen it comes to digitalisation, politicians are largely in the dark.\u201d \u2013 Michael Butz <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b0b1c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1b0b1c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Which is another way of saying political failure, or at least a certain timidity.

In the other two areas, there are specific approaches and a lot of expertise on how to get things moving. When it comes to digitalisation, politicians are largely in the dark. There are far too few experts who can really understand and assess the topic. The mere slogan &#8220;We need more digitalisation&#8221; is not enough. If you take the fight against cybercrime seriously, for example, then you need to know first: Who is on the other end of the line? This is an example that shows the impact that a comprehensive digital identity can have and how it can help to realise political intentions in practice in Europe. The attempts to achieve greater acceptance with educational programmes, for example, take far too long. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e67a619 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e67a619\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The global situation seems even less clear.

The big hyperscalers offer free cloud solutions and no user really knows what happens to their data. Ultimately, they do what they want. The ESD wants a cloud in Europe with a European infrastructure where everyone can store data, the GDPR is observed, the data belongs to the users and nothing is automatically analysed for marketing purposes. The global systems do not adhere to this at all, zero. They do not know GDPR. The Americans analyse millions of European data records.
