ACCV
eGovernance Workshop on Citizen Advanced Relationship Management (CARMEN) and Setting Processes for Electronic Signatures (WSPES).
March 5th, 2007 – Prato, Italy
Introduction: Origin and Evolution of the ACCV
The Valencian Government is one of the 17 autonomous regional goverments that exist in Spain. They are all self governing and independent from the national government in many areas.
In 1999, the Valencian Government implemented Strategic Plans to accelerate the introduction of new Information Technologies in Valencia Society.
In this context, a new project called e-firmaGV was started in 2000. The project was to create a Public Key Infraestructure able to issue Digital Signature to the administration itself and also to the general public.
In 2005, the ACCV was formally constituted as the Certification Services Provider of the Valencian Community. The ACCV is juridically independent and has a total control and authority over its operation to achieve its goals.
Today, the ACCV is considered the most utilized regional Certification Services Provider in Spain.
