| dct:title | Trust |
| dct:description | (Statement) The organisation behind digital public services and the data manged need to incorporate the relevant mechanisms to ensure overall trustworthiness. |
| dct:description | (Rationale) Trust entails citizens' reliance on trustworthy and verifiable digital government applications and services, which fully conform to high-security standards and respond to user needs. Fundamental rights and security should be integrated into all policies with a digital dimension. To foster trust in digital interactions with the public sector, suitable regulatory frameworks that ensure transparency, predictability, security-by-design and, where necessary, reinforcement or adjustment of existing provisions must be provided. |
| dct:description | (Implications) "The principle has a horizontal approach, where it affects the adoption of legal measures, organisational mechanisms, and technical means to ensure services are part of a network of trustworthiness interactions. At the legal level, relevant and binding legislation needs to be put in place to ensure legal interoperability and guarantee that trust is the base of data interactions (exchange, processing, etc, amongst digital public services).At the technical level, mechanisms, tools, and standards should be part of the certification of processes, ensuring that data exchanges between stakeholders are saved with built-in integrity and trust provisions." |

| rdfs:comment | "Trust and security in digital government interactionsEveryone should be able to navigate the digital world safely, authenticate and be digitally recognised within the EU conveniently. All people of Europe should avail of an easy to use, widely accepted and secure electronic identification conforming to European standards (e-ID), which allows them to securely access public, private and cross-border digital services. As a broad acceptance of digital government depends on trust, we must ensure that citizens and businesses are able to rely on trustworthy and verifiable digital government applications and services, which are in full conformity with high-security standards and respond to user needs. Moreover, to ensure a free, open and safe digital domain and enhance social trust, fundamental rights and security should be integrated on all policies with a digital dimension. To foster trust in digital interactions with the public sector, suitable regulatory frameworks must be provided that ensure transparency, predictability, security-by-design and, where necessary, reinforcement or adjustment of existing provisions." |
