Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) encompass a network of technologies that enable seamless communication between vehicles, infrastructure, and other road users, improving traffic safety, efficiency, and mobility. To ensure effectiveness, C-ITS relies on standardization and centralized control. In the European Union, this responsibility falls to the Joint Research Centre, the European Commission’s science and knowledge service. C-ITS is expected to play a pivotal role in the future of transportation, with the European Commission and the Joint Research Centre at the forefront of its development and implementation.
A Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is essential for the functioning of any C-ITS system. The C-ITS PKI, managed by the Joint Research Centre, serves as the security foundation for all C-ITS operations across Europe.
Our solution for the European Commission
In 2020, the Joint Research Centre selected Eviden Digital Identity (then Atos) to deploy and manage its C-ITS PKI. The solution implemented for this purpose is the IDnomic C-ITS PKI. As a result, the IDnomic C-ITS PKI has become the central trust anchor for C-ITS users across Europe, including governments, public and private road authorities, and car manufacturers. These entities rely on it to authenticate their connected stations and secure their communications.
The C-ITS PKI solution provided by Eviden Digital Identity is hosted by Orange Business Services in France. It is the first C-ITS-compliant PKI to issue digital certificates for large-scale, real-world operations, moving beyond pilot projects to support everyday use.
The European Patent Office used a proprietary smart card solution for online patent applications, which led to a vendor lock. This solution should be replaced.
Our Solution for the European Patent Office
The European Patent Office opted for cryptovision SCinterface for the protection of online patent applications. As cryptovision SCinterface is based on open standards, the vendor lock was ended.
The German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Aerospace (BMFTR) required a solution for encrypting and signing emails for around 1,500 users. In addition to a high level of security, user-friendliness was a particularly important criterion for this customer. In particular, the selected solution had to enable the smooth use of departmental mailboxes and offer automated key management. Seamless integration into existing infrastructures and processes also played an important role for the customer. Finally, it was a requirement of the customer that classified information could be processed and sent in some departments. At the same time, however, VS requirements are to be dispensed with in other departments.
Our solution for the BMFTR
The BMFTR opted for the cryptovision GreenShield product as it best met the requirements mentioned. GreenShield is one of the few solutions of its kind to be approved for processing documents up to classification level VS-NfD and is therefore ideally suited to the BMFTR’s VS requirements. The digital certificates for VS-compliant communication are provided fully automatically by a sub-CA of the administrative PKI.
The Banco de España (BdE) is the central bank of Spain. In addition to its regulatory function at the national level, it is part of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) and provides services to the central banks of all 27 European member states. To enable the proper functioning of the ESCB, it is necessary to ensure the security of communications and transactions between banks and European central services, as well as the trustworthy identification of their operators.
Our solution for Banco de Espana
To cope with the complexity of the public sector and financial industry, we have implemented all major products of the IDnomic PKI suite, which enables BdE to successfully deliver key services at the European level. The new on-premise PKI is a stable, secure, eIDAS-qualified, scalable and flexible solution that allows BdE to deploy up to 35,000 digital certificates required for the correct delivery of ESCB services. BdE ensures security and stability for a highly sensitive service with a durable solution that has already proven its level of performance in critical services/infrastructures
The Ariane Group is a world leader in access to space, developing and manufacturing innovative launchers and providing civil and military space solutions. The company employs 7,000 people in France and Germany and has 11 subsidiaries and major partners. As a typical aerospace industry requirement, ArianeGroup had a global requirement to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data, whether accessed by physical or legal entities. In particular, this involved providing digital identities for employees, securing the workstations of maintenance teams, and tracking all interventions in an auditable process.
Our solution for ArianeGroup
We set up a cloud-based PKI system for the customer to manage credentials for all sensitive digital identities and ensure the integrity of information and actions. The scope includes the PKI for the production of digital identities, our CMS (Credential Management System) and all necessary enrollment protocol connectors, which are crucial for the provision of certificates via the network infrastructure
