Cybercom secures Swedes’ digital identity

Cybercom Group has won a contract for “Federation services for Swedish e
-identification” for the EIdentification Board. The contract runs for three
years, with an option for a further two years.
“We are very proud to be given the opportunity to build the security foundation
that is essential for the entire e-society. This contract further strengthens
our leading position in the field of federations – a cornerstone of identity
solutions for a connected world, where security should not lock things away but
instead create opportunities for collaboration,” says Björn Lindeberg, Business
Manager, Cybercom.

Cybercom will develop secure infrastructure for Swedish e-governance. The
assignment consists of development in 2013, and hosting and application
management during 2014-2016. The value of this contract is estimated to
approximately SEK 30 million. Cybercom has worked with IT security for many
years with several of Sweden’s leading companies and organisations.

“This assignment demonstrates Cybercom’s unique position within IT-security. We
are assisting the EIdentification Board with a new platform for electronic
identities, intended to allow citizens to use their digital identity (their eID,
security token or similar) in a simpler and more flexible way. The technology
also means that organisations can rely on each other’s logins so that we as
users are given the opportunity of so-called single sign-on for various
government agencies, as well as integration of cloud services in a secure way,”
says Bo Strömqvist, Head of Sales, Cybercom Group.
