Internet communication and digital technologies are an integral part of our daily lives. The provision of electronic public services, the growing volume of electronic transactions and electronic turnover raise a number of issues with the security of information and electronic identification of entities, so that there is no doubt about the participants in the relevant proceedings or in the digital trade. The question is what is the analogue of the ID card, which should be used to identify individuals and other entities in a digital environment. The report examines the application of electronic identification and electronic identity in the context of personal data security and the possibilities to minimize the misuse of personal data through the electronic identification process.
