Identification card systems - European Citizen Card - Part 4: Recommendations for European Citizen Card issuance, operation and use

CEN/TS 15480-4 recommends card issuance and operational procedures including citizens' registration.
CEN/TS 15480-4 gives recommendations with regard to the end-user e.g. with respect to privacy and accessibility aspects.
CEN/TS 15480-4 also identifies a set of standard ECC card profiles (e.g. National ID Card, Health Card, Card issued by a Municipality), that can be used as basis for the specification of new ECC projects.
For each profile, this Technical Specification uses a specified template which
-  selects a subset of technical requirements from CEN/TS 15480-1, FprCEN/TS 15480-2:2011 and CEN/TS 15480-3:2010.
-  considers the operation of the ECC in its particular environment.
The target audience of CEN/TS 15480-4 is the card issuer.

Sistemi z identifikacijskimi karticami - Kartica evropskih državljanov - 4. del: Priporočila za izdajanje, delovanje in uporabo kartic evropskih državljanov

CEN/TS 15480-4 priporoča postopke izdajanja in delovanja kartic, vključno z registracijo državljanov. CEN/TS 15480-4 vsebuje priporočila glede končnega uporabnika, npr. glede vidikov zasebnosti in dostopnosti. CEN/TS 15480-4 določa tudi niz profilov standardnih kartic evropskega državljana (ECC) (npr. nacionalni identifikacijski dokument, zdravstvena kartica, kartica, ki jo izda občina), ki se lahko uporabljajo kot podlaga za specifikacijo novih projektov kartice evropskega državljana. Za posamezni profil je v tehnični specifikaciji uporabljena določena predloga za izbiro podmnožice tehničnih zahtev iz CEN/TS 15480-1, CEN/TS 15480-2:2011 in CEN/TS 15480-3:2010, pri čemer se upošteva delovanje kartice evropskega državljana v specifičnem okolju. Ciljna publika CEN/TS 15480-4 so izdajatelji kartic.

4 General recommendations on card issuance and operational procedures
4.1 Initial considerations for an ECC project
CEN/TS 15480-4 does not aim at providing an overall solution on how to design and run a complete EMS.
It provides some guidance to overcome common challenges that the organisations responsible for the
conception and management of the system are likely to face, including the following issues.
 Clear identification of the main purposes of the system and of the nature of the assets to be protected
shall lead to the early definition of the security policy to run the system
The ECC may be issued for different purposes: it can act for example as a national ID card, travelling
card, e-government or health insurance card. Following its intended purpose, the EMS main purpose can
diverge: to enhance security, to increase efficiency in the provision of services, to reduce identity fraud or
to cut expenses by establishing a system of privileges upon card and user's authentication. It is assumed
that privacy protection is a common objective. The use cases will define the applications to be selected by
the card. In this Technical Specification, use cases translate into ECC profiles (see Annex A), that
precisely describe card security mechanisms.
The practical work of the project can be summarized in the next four points:
 the analysis of risks based on the ECC use case;
 the definition of security policies to minimize the impact of those risks;
 the integration of those security policies within a modular architectural framework;
 the choice of technologies for implementation of the modules and of the communication interfaces
between the system components.
 A secure, trusted and cost-effective scheme should be carefully studied in order to make the appropriate
decisions for the inevitable trade-offs in terms of security / cost and security / privacy.
The ECC provisions have been specified having in mind the system integrator once the system objectives
have been set. For instance CEN/TS 15480-3:2010 provides guidance in relation with the key choices
relative to the physical and logical distributions of functionalities, the security architecture model and the
definition of interfaces for interoperability. The architectures proposed in this Technical Specification, are
aimed at avoiding unnecessary system complexity.
 An early decision is the sharing of the security functions between the components of the EMS and the
type of e-government services to be provided and their associated risks. Then there are two key issues:
 to identify the case for strong authentication requiring access to card services;
 to grant access or not to these services by cardholders external to the domestic system. Then to set
the access conditions.
Cross-Border access represents a case for strong authentication. The scheme can be able to trust a non-
domestic e-identity with a similar level of confidence to that of an e-identity issued by the system itself.
Transparent access to an e-government server, using the ECC as an authenticator, requires some
degree of harmonization between the infrastructures. This Technical Specification encourages
deployment of middleware-based access to services according to CEN/TS 15480-3:2010 provisions. This
architecture is intended to support the interoperability of electronic identity credentials.
Clearing and settlement infrastructures for cross-border e-government services are out of the scope of
this Technical Specification.

 Trust on e-identity requires confidence on the enrolment and issuance processes through, for instance,
the use of the same or similar practices.
A set of recommendations is provided in 4.4.2 ff. The EMS should be constructed of separate modules.
Each module performs its own function. The solution should be device/equipment independent so that
personalization equipments from several machinery suppliers may be considered.
One way to capitalize past investment is by the introduction of a module in the enrolment subsystem able
to authenticate and read an electronic document (as an electronic passport) in order to verify the
applicant’s identity at the beginning of the enrolment process
At present, limited harmonization exists at European level and significant differences remain between EU
Member States about privacy requirements. ID card issuance and operation is at present under national
laws that can differ substantially. Notice as well the lack of legal basis for the cross-border recognition of
electronic identities.
However, EU legislation might be relevant for the ECC which regards the following:
 data protection during the personal data capture, personalisation, issuance, and operational process,
including card renewal. Subclauses 5.1 ff. introduce this issue;
 the core identification, authentication and digital signature supported by the card that shall comply
with European Directive 1999/93/EC [2];
 the services provided by the card: The ECC is intended to facilitate access to cross-border shared e-
Government services as well as to simplify and strengthen the right of free movement and residence
of all EU citizens. In that respect, references to the European Directive 2006/123/EC [5] as well as to
the European Directive 2004/38/EC [4] are relevant.
Performing an EMS Private Impact Assessment can help to early identify potentially conflict
