The Italian digital identity managers begin its lending activity of SPID credentials to citizens and businesses that need it.

The operation of the SPID system within the first months of 2016 has been one of priorities set by the President of the Council of Ministers. And after announcements, decrees, experimentation, SPID debuts officially in March 2016. With the launch of the Public System for Digital Identity Management of citizens and businesses (SPID) public authorities may allow access network to its own services, as well as with the same SPID, only through the electronic identity card and national services card. Among the first digital identity management SPID we are: InfoCert, Italian Post and Telecom Italy.

With the start of activities by the digital identity management are more than 600 of the PA online services accessible through SPID provided by six regions – Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Liguria, Marche, Piedmont, Tuscany -, Tax Office, INAIL, INPS and the city of Florence. The goal is to bring within 2 years of the entire public administration to join the digital identity system SPID.

TIM joins SPID as a manager of digital identity launching TIM ID while Italian Poste adheres to SPID as through PosteID enabled SPI . To follow all the details.



SPID, the Public System of Identity ‘Digital

But what is SPID? This is the new login system (such as username and password when you log in to an area to which you are registered on the web) that allows citizens and businesses to access with a single digital identity to all online services of public administrations and affiliated firms. With SPID, you will no longer be ‘necessary to register to various online sites of the PA and businesses each with a username and password, different or not, but just a single login, SPID precisely. By comparison, SPID will be a bit ‘on’ button Facebook Login ‘of PA.



SPID, 3 security levels

The SPID identity consists of credentials with features differ depending on the security level required for access. There are three security levels , each of which corresponds to three different levels of SPID identity. The first level allows the authentication ID and password set by the user; Second level allows password authentication + generation of a One Time Password sent to the user (eg via SMS); Third level allows password authentication + smart card. Public administrations and private autonomously define the level of security necessary to be able to access their digital services.

How do you get the Digital Identity SPID? It is issued by the Managers Digital Identity ( identity Provider, like Telecom Italy), private entities accredited by AGID that, in compliance with the rules issued by the Agency, provide digital identities and manage user authentication. To obtain an identity SPID the user must make a request to the manager, who, after attending to the details of the applicant, issues digital identity releasing the user for credentials. Each operator can choose between different test mode. Citizens can choose manage digital identity he prefers. Currently the digital identity management are: InfoCert, Italian Post, Telecom Italy Trust Technologies.

There are 5 main reasons why it was preferred to use the identity provider (IdP) rather that a public authority. First, in accordance with the principle of freedom of user choice because every citizen can ‘choose the IdP he wants and stop using one provider if you wish. Second, there is a centralized database of identity and therefore to protect the privacy of users, each IdP is responsible for conducting safely related activities, while every service provider has access only to the data they need to deliver the service. Third, using different IdP the system is more secure and less vulnerable. Fourth, the IdP have the freedom to design services to meet the standards dictated by the government allowing them to develop services that can be used by both the public and private sectors, resulting in reduced costs. Fifth, to make the most of the technology available.

After the enactment of the Community Regulation and-IDAS (Electronic Identity Authentication and Signature) and the notification by the Italian government of Prime Ministerial Decree regulating SPID to the European Commission , the Italian system will be accepted by other EU Member States.

Compared to the electronic charts use the SPID identity is easier, as the user identity SPID is not mandating the use of any card reader , but can ‘be used in different ways (eg. PC, smartphone, tablet, etc.).

SPID protecting personal data more a smart-card , as with electronic cards personal data useful to verify the identity on the network are all available to the service provider. With SPID, even if the user will always be authenticated safely, they will be provided to the service provider, with your permission, only the data strictly necessary for the transaction.

The citizen is protected by law as a result of identity theft SPID perpetrated against him from a civilian point of view by the rules regulating SPID, but also by the penal code which in this case provides for imprisonment up to three years for the manager identity.

the Agency for digital Italy has guaranteed that SPID will be free, but in Infocert sites and TIM Trust Technologies says that the service “is free for the first two years.”
