2. OS2 Introducerea în producție a rezultatelor activității de cercetare desfăsurată în proiectul „Servicii de atestare
a identității în medii descentralizate bazate pe tehnologii de tip blockchain (IDBC)”.

3. OS3 Diseminarea rezultatelor de cercetare și dezvoltare experimentală în vederea popularizării științei și creșterii gradului de conștientizare.

4. OS4 Diversificarea activității certSIGN prin oferirea unui nou serviciu de atestare a identității ce va fi pus la dispoziția clienților prin intermediul unei platforme de semnare contracte.

Rezultatele proiectului IDBC

Realizarea unui prototip pentru un sistem de atestare a identității folosind medii descentralizate de tip blockchain capabil să emită atestări verificabile și să furnizeze datele validate către un sistem terț de semnare electronică în vederea realizării de semnături electronice.
Instalarea și configurarea a două medii, test/development și producție, a serviciului de atestare a identității în medii descentralizate bazate pe tehnologii de tip blockchain (IDBC).
Diseminarea rezultatelor de cercetare și dezvoltare experimentală (publicații știintifice și participări la conferințe).
Integrarea serviciului de atestare a identității IDBC cu sistemul paperLESS Remote Signing Service (RSS) pentru semnarea de documente/contracte, ce va fi pus la dispoziția clienților existenți.
