On October 4, the French Prime Minister issued an order (source document in French) on
Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic
Transactions to reinforce the existing regulations on electronic
transactions. Among other changes, the order introduces a legal
definition of "electronic identification" and sets an
optional certification system for electronic identification service
providers. ANSSI will act as the certification authority and the
terms of such certification will be set by the French Conseil
d'Etat.
