International Journal of Electronic Governance (IJEG), Vol. 6, No. 2, 2013

Abstract: Seamless and secure service provision has been the holy grail of e-government initiatives at a national and European level. For the first time a concrete architectural framework accompanied by solid implementation is emerging at a European level, within the context of the Services Directive. The basic framework is adopted by EU countries and currently struggles to gain the critical mass. In this paper, we describe the security requirements and operational details of this framework to carry out secure electronic transactions and to adopt new services. We also focus on e-signatures and the way they cover secure and interoperable document exchange.
