By launching the national electronic definition card in its second digital generation (2.0), The General Directorate of National Security has given the significance signal, effectively, to the path of crossing Moroccan citizens towards digital identity, as well as the paved technological and technical ground for the rest of the public and private institutions to download a package of commercial, administrative and social services for the benefit of various age groups and social segments.
In the face of the technological acceleration that the services market and the urgent need to move to the use of electronic management systems, and what accompanied this development from the expansion of the base of citizens who use digital media to spend their commercial purposes and the completion of their administrative transactions, the General Directorate of National Security was a forerunner to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the latest approved technologiesGlobally in the field of identity bonds, which combines saving and wider access to electronic services and respecting the highest standards of safety and possible protection for personal and biometric data.
On the basis of this commitment, the national card for electronic definition came in its new form surrounded by communication techniques that enable service providers to read the personal data that it contains automatically and immediately, a profit for time and to avoid linguistic errors at the process of digging the data manually..Among the most prominent of these technologies is the "NFC" protocol, which today is the nerve of electronic services at the global level, as it can be connected to a distance less than a few centimeters between the electronic identification card and the information devices available to the various service providers, in a way that allows reading the written data onThe card surface is automatically.
In the same context, similar to the criteria adopted in the field of high -protection banking card, the national card for electronic definition has been strengthened at several levels of safety, the most prominent of which is providing the citizen with a secret consisting of four numbers, allowing him to use his identification card exclusively, fromDuring his ability to confirm his identity by entering the umbilical channel, which is personally not circulating, which would open the field wider to economic and public actors to provide commercial services that the citizen can benefit from "PRESTATIONS à Distance".
Among the most important safety criteria that this card contains, also, carried by a digital slice "Puce Numérique" is not visible and has a high level of encryption for introductory data, which enables to read some identification data automatically, and it is also not connected to any information system or a data base, and enables itExploiting the identification and biometric data of the citizen as much as the latter allows, which would protect the citizen from the dangers related to impersonating identity and forgery.
To ensure the suitability of modern technologies that were adopted within the national card for electronic definition, with the peculiarities of local identification data and the requirements of institutional use of this document, the engineering and technical teams of the General Directorate of National Security, and over more than three years, have worked to provide software and equip the guarantee infrastructureBy receiving and using this modern technology, with the necessary recruitment of high professional competencies and the development of work methods and technologies.
From this perspective, the national card for electronic definition aims in its updated formula establishing an integrated digital identity for the benefit of Moroccan citizens on the one hand, with this identity fortified with an integrated system of safety standards and advanced information encryption mechanisms;In addition to enhancing the confidence of citizens in electronic transactions, whether administrative, economic or social on the other hand, which are the transactions that are today one of the most important criteria for measuring the development of contemporary societies and systems, and determining the extent of their ability to competitiveness in the global economic market.
