EUDI wallets will allow the storage and transfer to relying parties of Person Identification Data (PID) but also of electronically attested attributes (eAAs) that can play a critical role in securing digital interactions, both online and offline, especially when issued as qualified trust services (QEAAs).
The presentation will consider the potential of atomic [Q]eAAs within the context of payment transactions and discuss in particular the role they could play for the purpose of combining identity, status and payment attributes into seamless and secure EUDI wallet communications. Using standard PKI protocols, [Q]eAAs can greatly enhance the security of payment messages, combat payment fraud and support AML requirements but also comply with data minimisation requirements.
Beyond EUDI wallets, it should be of interest to anyone interested in digital wallets, electronic signature processes as well as digital finance use cases, including the digital euro and other CBDCs.
