17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
• EU supported project – pilot deployment of award-winning FAST trust infrastructure
• Contributes to Commission's defined European eGov objectives: providing tools that can be used flexibly and interoperably by European administrations
• Adaptation of French-developed bundle of services to Spanish and UK local/regional government contexts
F.A.S.T. : Fully Automated Secured Transactions services
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
FACTS
• Initial Deployment project, from 01/01/2007-to- 31/12/2009 years, funding 2.2M€
• Trust and secure European platform for Data exchange between all levels of administration (European, Central, Regional and Local).
• Consortium will develop for the FP6 and Public Sector projects a playfield to help architecting, deploying, and testing robust and flexible trust and secure infrastructure solutions.
• Beneficiaries are The Industry sector for secured exchanges with administration (Spain)
The Department of Education, pupils, teachers, parents and Administrative (UK),

The FAST technologiesIntroduction
• What are the FAST technologies designed for? – Secure data exchange– Long-term electronic evidence
• What are the FAST technologies?– The FAST platform– The FAST APIs
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
The FAST technologiesSecurity
• Rationale– The FAST technologies process highly sensitive
data, which require a high level of security
• Security mechanisms– Authentication and integrity– Confidentiality– Evidence– Availability
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
The FAST technologiesInteroperability
• Rationale– Standard formats and protocols are best suited for
long-term conservation of electronic evidence
• Interoperable formats and protocols– Electronic signature– Encryption– Digital certificates– Revocation status– Time-stamping– Request format and transport
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
The FAST platform Transmission process
1. Authentication and access control
2. Signature validation
3. Time-stamping
4. Transmission to the recipient
5. Creation of the proof
6. Archiving
7. Indexing
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
The FAST platform Extensibility
• Time-stamping– Time-stamp authorities
• Validation– PKIX X.509 certificates
• Transmission– Web services, proprietary protocols
• Archiving– Archive authorities
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
The FAST platform Infrastructure
• The Software as a Service (SaaS) version of the FAST platform is hosted by Informatique CDC
• Highly secure premises
• Highly available infrastructure
• Proficient personnel
17 March 2010 Workshop on Efficient and Effective eGovernment
The FAST APIs : Overview
• Two major APIs– Signature API– Encryption API
• Common desktop and server environments are supported– Windows, UNIX/Linux, Mac OS X– Java, COM object, C API
• Validation requests are web service-based
