Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 (hereafter the eIDAS Regulation), on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market, provides a regulatory environment for electronic identification of natural and legal persons and for a set of electronic trust services, namely electronic signatures, seals, time stamps, registered delivery services and certificates for website authentication. The eIDAS Regulation sets the principle of non-discrimination of the legal effects and admissibility of electronic signatures, electronic seals, electronic time stamps, electronic registered delivery services and electronic documents as evidence in legal proceedings. Courts (or other bodies in charge of legal proceedings) cannot discard them as evidence only because they are electronic but have to assess these electronic tools in the same way they would do for their paper equivalent. Whether you are a large company, a SME or a citizen trying to complete an electronic transaction in another EU country, e.g. submit a call for tender or register as a student in another EU Member State (MS), besides reducing time and costs, the eIDAS Regulation will ensure cross border recognition of notified national eID mean and qualified trust services supporting your electronic transaction. Hence it will boost trust, security and convenience. Since 1 July 2016, most provisions of the eIDAS Regulation are directly applicable in the 28 EU Member States' legal framework overcoming problems of fragmented national regimes. It provides legal certainty and fosters the usage of eID means and trust services for online access and online transactions at EU level. The eIDAS Regulation will ensure that people and businesses can use their national eIDs to access public services in other EU countries where eIDs are required for such an access at national level. It also creates an EU wide internal market for qualified trust services by ensuring their recognition and workability across borders and considering them equivalent to traditional paper based processes.

On July 1st 2016, Regulation (EU) 910/2014 (hereafter called the eIDAS Regulation), which lays down the rules on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market came into force covering across Europe in all 28 Member States. It defines trust services for supporting electronic signatures, electronic seals, electronic time stamps, electronic registered delivery services and website authentication. The eIDAS Regulation represented a big step forward in building a digital single market as it provides one common legal framework for all parties relying or providing on those kind of services. Indeed, various sectors of the economy (e.g. finance, banking, transport, insurance, health, sharing economy, trading, et cetera) where obligations exist for security, reliable identification, strong authentication, legal certainty of evidences, will clearly be positively affected by the eIDAS Regulation. This latter will indeed allow citizens, businesses and public administrations to meet such obligations for any (cross-border) electronic transaction as they will now be able to use the recognised eID means and (qualified) trust services. In particular, a qualified electronic signature shall have the equivalent legal effect of a handwritten signature and, when based on a qualified certificate issued in one Member State, shall be recognised as a qualified electronic signature in all other Member States. This document addresses qualified electronic signatures and is one out of a series of five documents which target to assist parties aiming to use qualified electronic signatures, seals, time stamps, eDelivery or website authentication certificates to understand the subject correctly as-well-as the potential benefits, amongst others, by giving examples of possible application. This series of documents also targets to give those parties some advice on how to correctly use the related (qualified) trust services.

It is possible to use those trust services as well as electronic documents as evidence in legal proceedings in all EU Member States contributing to their general cross-border use. Courts (or other bodies in charge of legal proceedings) cannot discard them as evidence only because they are electronic but have to assess these electronic tools in the same way they would do for their paper equivalent. To further enhance the trust of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and consumers in the internal market, and to promote the use of trust services and products, the eIDAS Regulation introduces the notions of qualified trust service (QTS) and qualified trust service provider (QTSP) with a view to indicating requirements and obligations that ensure high-level security and a higher presumption of their legal effect. This document provides recommendations to help qualified trust service providers and auditors understand the expected mapping between these requirements/obligations and reference numbers of standards, as well as practical recommendations for their usage. The document is structured in two main sections: - A section on "Requirements common to all QTSPs" that includes recommendations on the requirements common to all TSPs and on the additional requirements common to all QTSPs; - A section on "Requirements for provision of specific QTS", to be used in addition to the above, that includes specific recommendations for the provision of the qualified trust services defined in eIDAS.

Following the publication of the eIDAS Regulation, a set of secondary and co-regulatory acts had to be published in order to provide technical guidance on how to implement the specific requirements of the eIDAS Regulation (in the TSP part of eIDAS, the European Commission decided to publish only the mandatory ones). ENISA aimed to develop a concise set of technical guidelines implementing the eIDAS Regulation in the non-mandatory articles, for voluntary use of all stakeholders, including Trust Service Providers, Supervisory Bodies and Conformity Assessment Bodies.

ENISA aimed to develop a concise set of technical guidelines implementing the eIDAS Regulation in the non-mandatory articles, for voluntary use of all stakeholders, including Trust Service Providers, Supervisory Bodies and Conformity Assessment Bodies. Every Trust Service Provider intending to start providing qualified trust services, will have to demonstrate compliance with the requirements defined by the eIDAS Regulation to the responsible Supervisory Body, through an audit or conformity assessment performed by an accredited Conformity Assessment Body. Through this document, ENISA is supporting both Trust Service Providers and Conformity Assessment Bodies in the audit activities by presenting the auditing framework. It aims at helping Trust Service Providers fulfil the requirements defined by the eIDAS Regulation (Articles 20 and 21) as requested by Supervisory Bodies in order to grant the qualified status to a Trust Service Provider and its provided trust service(s). The audit methodology as well as the recommendations regarding the Trust Service Providers documentation and implementation presented in this document can be used as a reference by both qualified Trust Service Providers and Conformity Assessment Bodies to support them in preparing and performing the conformity assessment as required by the eIDAS Regulation.

Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 (also known as the "eIDAS Regulation"), on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market, provides a regulatory environment for electronic identification of natural and legal persons and for a set of electronic trust services, namely; electronic signatures, seals, time stamps, registered delivery services and certificates for website authentication. One objective of this Regulation is to enhance the trust of enterprises and consumers in the internal market and to promote the use of trust services and products. To that end, the Regulation introduces the notions of qualified trust service (QTS) and qualified trust service provider (QTSP) with a view to indicating their compliance with the eIDAS high-level security requirements and obligations. A QTSP is a TSP that has been granted a qualified status and is supervised by its national supervisory body (SB). The aforementioned requirements and obligations are specified in: - Article 5 on data processing and protection; - Article 13 on liability; - Article 15 on accessibility for persons with disabilities; - Article 19 on security; - Article 24.2 on requirements for qualified trust services providers; and - Other articles on specific requirements regarding the QTS(s) provided by the QTSP. This document proposes a security framework to achieve compliance with Article 19 of the eIDAS Regulation, to which both non-QTSP and QTSP are subject. Nevertheless, Article 19.1 states that the security measures "shall ensure that the level of security is commensurate to the degree of risk". Because a security incident can have a different impact on the outputs of a QTSP than those of a TSP (e.g. loss of legal validity) and the QTSP itself (e.g. loss of qualified status and related business line), the degree of risk can be different for QTSPs and non-QTSPs. It is also possible for a non-QTSP to meet the same (or even higher) standards of quality and trustworthiness as a QTSP. In fact, to achieve compliance with Article 19 (valid for both, QTSPs and non-QTSPs), this series of documents recommend that the level of security implemented by non-QTSP, expected to follow 'best practices' when operating with due diligence, is equivalent to the one of QTSP. For this reason, the security practices applied by QTSPs are also relevant to - and can also be followed by - non-QTSPs. The background on trust service provisioning and the related security framework, on which qualified trust service provisioning relies, is presented in the [ENISA Security Framework for TSPs], to be considered as a pre-requisite to this document.The framework based is on guidelines for TSPs, taking into account the type of provided trust services, regarding policies, procedures, and processes in order to achieve compliance with the security requirements defined in eIDAS under Articles 19.1 and 19.2. This document completes the latter with recommendations specific to QTSP/QTS, in particular in order to achieve compliance with the security requirements defined in eIDAS under Article 24.2, and the other articles on specific requirements regarding the QTS(s) provided by the QTSP.

Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 (also known as the "eIDAS Regulation"), on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market, provides a regulatory environment for electronic identification of natural and legal persons and for a set of electronic trust services, namely; electronic signatures, seals, time stamps, registered delivery services and certificates for website authentication. It is possible to use the output of those trust services as well as electronic documents as evidence in legal proceedings in all EU Member States contributing to their general cross-border use. Courts (or other bodies in charge of legal proceedings) cannot discard them as evidence on the sole basis that they are electronic but have to assess them in the same way they would do for their paper equivalent. A natural or a legal person established in one of the Member States in which the Regulation entered into force and providing one or more of the eIDAS trust services is called a Trust Service Provider (TSP). A TSP is subject to eIDAS requirements and in particular to: - Article 5 on data processing and protection; - Article 13 on the liability of the TSP; - Article 15 on accessibility for persons with disabilities; and - Article 19 on security. This document proposes a security framework to achieve compliance with Article 19 of the eIDAS Regulation. As illustrated below, this security framework includes specific guidelines for TSP on: - Risk management related to the security of the eIDAS trust services and based on ISO/IEC 27005 general approach; - Security incident management by using the appropriate measures to efficiently detect, measure the impact, respond, report, and recover from security incidents as part of the eIDAS Regulation; - Security measures recommended to TSPs from "technical" standards and best practices to treat the risks and contribute to the security incident management. The level of security of these measures is to be selected by the TSP to be commensurate to the degree of risk bound to the context of the TSP (determined during the "context establishment").
