eIDAS 2.0 – Reshaping a Safer and More Trusted Digital Future for Europe
Building on the foundation of eIDAS – the European framework for “Electronic Identification, Authentication and Trust Services” in the European Single Market – eIDAS 2.0 was introduced to strengthen the region’s digital infrastructure, promising greater efficiency and higher levels of trust in the digital economy. eIDAS – The Regulation on Electronic Identification, Authentication and Trust Services Approved in September 2014, the Regulation on “Electronic Identification, Authentication and Trust Services” for the European Single Market, known as eIDAS, became fully applicable in September 2018. Under eIDAS, European citizens and businesses can use nationally issued electronic identification systems to verify their identities when accessing public services or carrying out cross-border electronic transactions. eIDAS focuses on two key areas: Importantly, eIDAS applies not only to public authorities but also to private-sector organizations that use electronic identification or trust services, including those in the financial services, insurance, healthcare, and e-commerce sectors. As such, eIDAS serves as a unified digital trust infrastructure for cross-border electronic transactions across Europe. Why is eIDAS 2.0 Needed? Although eIDAS significantly improved Europe’s electronic identification and trust services infrastructure, several limitations remained. The emergence of new electronic identification services and models has resulted in a fragmented market. The scope of the existing legal framework no longer fully reflects the way electronic identification and trust services are being used in practice. Today, private companies also provide eID solutions, but these solutions do not necessarily follow a unified standard offering the same high levels of security, assurance, and transparency as eID schemes recognized under eIDAS. While eIDAS-compliant eID solutions are secure, their adoption and usability in the private sector have remained relatively limited. Challenges also exist in areas such as identity verification, data management, and user control. Today’s users expect a seamless and secure online experience. They want to access both public and private services such as healthcare and banking through a single, convenient digital identity or Single Sign-On (SSO) experience. However, the original eIDAS framework focused primarily on cross-border access to public services, while giving less attention to the needs of the private sector. Even for public services, barriers remain that prevent many citizens from accessing trusted electronic identification solutions. Social media platforms and private technology companies already offer login options based on existing accounts, such as Facebook, Microsoft, or Google. However, these solutions raise concerns regarding data control and security. They often lack robust real-world identity verification processes, potentially making systems more vulnerable. In addition, using these platforms across multiple services may result in non-transparent data sharing and privacy concerns. What is eIDAS 2.0? eIDAS 2.0 – officially known as the European Digital Identity Framework under Regulation (EU) 2024/1183 – is the updated version of the European Union’s framework for electronic identification, authentication, and trust services. The updated framework is designed to improve the efficiency of cross-border services while supporting secure electronic identification solutions for both the public and private sectors. eIDAS 2.0 represents a structural evolution of Europe’s digital identity and trust services framework. It addresses limitations in the original framework, expands the range of regulated trust services, strengthens security and governance requirements, and, most notably, introduces the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) as a core component of Member States’ digital identity ecosystems. Key Changes Introduced by eIDAS 2.0 The transition from eIDAS to eIDAS 2.0 introduces two major developments aimed at strengthening Europe’s legal and regulatory framework for electronic identification and trust services. Expanded Trust Services eIDAS 2.0 further develops the regulatory framework for Qualified Trust Service Providers (QTSPs), with particular emphasis on identity verification processes for individuals and legal entities when qualified certificates are issued. The objective is to ensure greater consistency and harmonization across Europe. In addition, new qualified trust services – including electronic archiving, electronic ledgers, and the management of remote electronic signature devices – have been introduced under eIDAS 2.0. European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) One of the most significant innovations introduced by eIDAS 2.0 is the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet). The EUDI Wallet is a secure, user-controlled digital wallet that enables individuals to store, manage, and selectively share their identity data, credentials, and other personal information, as well as verified legal documents such as driving licences, educational qualifications, professional certificates, or bank account information. The Wallet can be used for both online and offline services, allowing users to conveniently share verified credentials with relying parties including government authorities and private-sector organizations for purposes such as identity verification or electronic signing. Under the original eIDAS framework, EU Member States had the discretion to decide whether to develop or notify official national electronic identification schemes. This resulted in significant differences in adoption rates among Member States and inconsistencies in cross-border interoperability. eIDAS 2.0 replaces this approach with a more unified and mandatory framework. By the end of 2026, each EU Member State is required to make at least one European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet) available to its citizens and residents. Conclusion The adoption of eIDAS 2.0 marks a significant step toward a secure, interoperable, and trusted ecosystem for electronic identification and trust services across the European Union. By emphasizing user-friendly experiences, strong security mechanisms, and streamlined processes, eIDAS 2.0 is expected to deliver tangible benefits for citizens, businesses, and government institutions alike. While the detailed implementation roadmap is still being developed, the foundations have now been established for a safer, more inclusive, and more trusted digital future for people across Europe.

SAVYINT Showcases Post-Quantum Digital Trust Solutions at the International Conference: “Shaping the Future of PKI Infrastructure: Transitioning Cryptographic Standards for Trust Services into the Post-Quantum Era”
On July 21, in Hanoi, the National Electronic Authentication Center (NEAC) under the Ministry of Science and Technology hosted the international conference “Shaping the Future of PKI Infrastructure: Transitioning Cryptographic Standards for Trust Services into the Post-Quantum Era.” At the event, SAVYINT demonstrated its forward-looking vision by showcasing its comprehensive Digital Trust solutions powered by Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC). The Post-Quantum Era and New Challenges for Digital Trust The conference was held at a time when countries around the world are accelerating research and preparations for the impact of quantum computing on digital infrastructure. While quantum computing promises unprecedented computational capabilities, it also presents significant challenges to the cryptographic mechanisms currently used to safeguard data, digital identities, and electronic transactions. During the conference, experts discussed emerging trends and challenges in trust services, shared international experiences in modernizing PKI infrastructure, enhancing crypto agility, and preparing migration roadmaps toward next-generation security technologies to ensure digital trust in the post-quantum era. Digital Trust Infrastructure as the Foundation of the Digital Economy In her opening remarks, Ms. To Thi Thu Huong, Director General of the National Electronic Authentication Center (NEAC), emphasized that Vietnam is entering a period of rapid development in its digital economy, digital society, and digital government. In this transformation, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), digital signatures, and trust services serve as the foundation for electronic identity authentication, data integrity, and trust in digital transactions. Proactively studying international standards, adopting global best practices, and preparing for future cryptographic transitions will not only help maintain digital trust and protect electronic transactions, but also facilitate cross-border interoperability and mutual recognition of trust services, supporting Vietnam’s international integration in the digital era. Three Major Challenges Facing Digital Trust Infrastructure in the Next Decade At the conference, domestic and international experts highlighted three critical challenges that are reshaping digital trust infrastructure worldwide. First, the rapid advancement of quantum computing requires a transition to new cryptographic standards capable of protecting data, digital identities, and electronic transactions in the future. Second, the explosive growth of cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and large-scale digital systems is dramatically increasing the number of digital certificates, connected devices, and trust services requiring authentication, making PKI modernization an urgent priority. Third, the global trend toward shorter digital certificate lifecycles, aimed at strengthening cybersecurity, is placing increasing pressure on certificate lifecycle management and operational efficiency. Experts agreed that the transition to the post-quantum era is not merely a technological challenge, but also one of governance, standardization, and organizational adaptability in an increasingly digital world. One of the key concepts highlighted during the conference was Crypto Agility – the capability that enables systems to seamlessly adopt and transition between cryptographic algorithms. Experts emphasized that adopting Hybrid Cryptography represents the most practical and strategic approach for Certification Authorities (CAs) in Vietnam to gradually migrate to post-quantum security while ensuring uninterrupted operation of existing systems. Strengthening Cryptographic Security Mr. Hoang Nguyen Van, Vice President of theVietnam Institute for Digital Transformation and Innovation (VIDTI), pointed out that the threat posed by quantum computing is no longer a distant concern – it is becoming a reality. Once sufficiently powerful quantum computers emerge, many of today’s cryptographic algorithms protecting government systems, national defense, financial services, banking, healthcare, and other critical infrastructures could be broken. Every nation is facing this security challenge. As economies become increasingly digital, the issue extends beyond protecting data – it is about safeguarding digital sovereigntyandtechnological sovereignty. “Long-lived data with retention periods of 25 to 30 years – such as financial records, strategic assets, public service contracts, and healthcare data faces a significant risk if not protected by next-generation cryptographic standards. Such data could be collected today and decrypted in the future through ‘harvest now, decrypt later’ attacks,” Mr. Hoang Nguyen Van stated. He also proposed a reference roadmap for the 2026 – 2030 period, including: Conducting a comprehensive inventory of cryptographic assets, assessing cryptographic risks, piloting new algorithms and deployment models; and gradually building national capabilities in post-quantum cryptography to safeguard data, electronic transactions, and financial security in the years ahead. According to Mr. Hoang Nguyen Van, the guiding principle for this transition should be “Crypto-Agility First.” This approach enables organizations to update cryptographic algorithms flexibly while maintaining interoperability and minimizing operational disruption when traditional algorithms are no longer considered secure. He further emphasized that the migration extends far beyond replacing cryptographic algorithms. It requires comprehensive modernization across the entire IT ecosystem, including network infrastructure, servers, authentication systems, operational processes, and business applications. To ensure security throughout the transition period, he recommended adopting a Hybrid Cryptography model that combines today’s widely deployed algorithms with quantum-resistant algorithms such as lattice-based cryptography.

Strengthening Authentication, Fraud Prevention and Risk Governance Become Top Priorities for Philippine Banks
To strengthen fraud prevention, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), under Circular No. 1213, requires institutions to adopt enhanced authentication methods in place of SMS and email OTPs, while also strengthening automated fraud management systems. According to BSP Circular No. 1213, issued in May 2025, the central bank requires BSP-supervised financial institutions to replace SMS- and email-based OTPs with stronger authentication methods such as biometrics, behavioural authentication, adaptive authentication, or passwordless authentication by 25 June 2026. In addition, the circular sets out specific requirements for strengthening automated fraud monitoring. This directive applies to banks and e-wallet operators with average online transaction revenues of more than PHP 75 million per month, including most commercial banks, digital banks, cooperative banks, and rural banks. Banks that fail to comply must reimburse customers for funds lost due to fraud. 1. Authentication and Compliance Requirements Circular 1213 requires institutions to move away from authentication mechanisms that can be shared with or intercepted by third parties. SMS and email OTPs fall under this definition. By 30 June 2026, high-risk transactions and critical account changes must use phishing-resistant, device-bound alternatives, such as server-side biometrics authenticated against templates stored by the bank, or FIDO2/WebAuthn passkeys with device authentication. OTPs may only be used to confirm ownership of a registered mobile phone number. Biometrics BSP requires financial institutions to adopt server-side biometric authentication, where customer identity is verified within the bank’s secure backend system based on biometric templates stored on the bank’s server. The use of biometrics is expected to reduce the risks of account takeover, device compromise, spoofing, and unauthorized changes to authentication credentials. FIDO2 Passkey FIDO2/WebAuthn is a passwordless authentication standard designated by BSP as a mandatory solution for high-risk transactions and critical account changes, which must use phishing-resistant and device-bound alternatives. Smart OTP As mentioned above, Smart OTP is used for one purpose only: confirming ownership of a registered mobile phone number. It must not be used for transaction authentication. This is an important distinction that banks should note to avoid confusion with traditional OTPs. 2. Fraud Prevention and Management Requirements In addition to strong authentication methods, Circular 1213 also requires financial and banking institutions to strengthen their proactive fraud monitoring and detection capabilities by identifying suspicious transactions, unfamiliar devices, and abnormal customer behaviour before financial losses occur. Accordingly, fraud management systems must operate in real time and be capable of: BSP emphasizes that batch processing or end-of-day reconciliation does not meet this standard. 3. AI-Powered Strong Authentication and Fraud Prevention Solutions from Savyint With extensive experience working with and supporting financial institutions, SAVYINT provides a security and fraud prevention solution suite that supports compliance with AFASA and BSP Circulars 1213, 1214, and 1215.
