The EDPS and the Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University organised on 22 June 2022 an Internet Privacy Engineering Network (IPEN) workshop on Digital Identity.
Where : Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University, Wóycickiego 1/3, Warsaw, Auditorium Maximum (building no. 21), Robert Schuman Auditorium.
"A wide debate has been ongoing on organisational and technological choices to design digital identity schemes and portfolios of personal attributes for digital authorisation purposes that can fully implement the GDPR principle of data protection by design and by default.
All this while the European co-legislators were discussing an EU policy initiative establishing a framework for a European Digital Identity and recommending the design of a toolbox to support that framework.
The workshop aimed at understanding the challenges and identifying the state of the art of the available options for compliant and privacy-enhancing solutions."

Stephan Engberg
At a 2009 French/Danish Conference, Caspar Bowden introduced Stephan Engberg as the strongest champion for privacy in Europe following 10 years as member of the international advisory board of Privacy International. From a background specializing in how complex systems evolve and 15 years in the privacy sector, he focused on Identity and Privacy with two startups focused on trustworthy design, active participation in EU security and digital economics research including member of the strategic advisory board of FP7 Security Research Road-mapping and numerous keynotes, talks, panels etc. Stephan’s consistent effort and argument is that there - with sufficient nuance in design - are no real trade-offs between privacy and other legitimate society interests such as research, anti-crime, taxation, public sector effectiveness, innovation, convenience etc. On the contrary – properly aligned privacy would be the active enabler of data sharing for other purposes. Together with people like Caspar Bowden and others this understanding was actively incorporated as requirements of trustworthy structures and pseudonymity into eIDAS and the focus on state-of-the-art data minimization in GDPR as the main legal drivers. In 2014 with the failure of Identity mixer, U-Prove and governments failure to incorporate pseudonymity in national id Structures, Stephan Engberg realized that the complexity of identity cannot be resolved through reports and partial input but calls for dedicated long-term efforts across hardware, software, processes and economic models designed around citizen control of keys and data while enabling solutions to secondary societal agendas. This started the CitizenKey project as a technology framework enabling Trustworthy Identity and data sharing and aiming to provide an add-on infrastructure enabling Trustworthy Inclusive Interoperability and now emerging.
