Report: Rebooting Trust Management in X-Road
Trust is the basic concept around which business and information security is formed. Like most systems, currently, X-Road uses a centralised root of trust to manage identities. The report presents the results of the research on migrating X-Road towards self-sovereign identity (SSI) management.
The report compares the centralised and decentralised identity management approaches to illustrate how systems should be changed to enable SSI. Additionally, the report discusses how the shift to the decentralised public key infrastructure can contribute to the X-Road trust model and member management.

Report: European Interoperability Landscape Report 2022
The delivery of cross-border digital public services largely depends on the ability of public administrations and businesses to transfer data across borders. Therefore, access to trusted, interoperable, and secure data-exchange solutions is essential for delivering cross-border services but is also crucial for establishing the Single Digital Gateway (SDG) and building a functioning European Digital Single Market (DSM). So far, the landscape of European cross-border data-exchange initiatives is unclear, especially regarding different solutions, roles, specifications, and technological differences between them.
The purpose of this report is to review the status of implementation and adoption of European cross-border data-exchange solutions and initiatives. Also, the report discusses the future outlook of European cross-border digital public services.
