The eID module

The eid module was presented on FOSDEM 2010 as one of the Drupal devroom talks. Below you will find the main functionality and links with more information.

The eid module makes it possible to add Belgium eID Authentication to Drupal site. It works with a reverse proxy authentication.

Belgium eID can be compared to Dutch DigID but it uses hardware in form of card with chip and card reader. It’s used for e-counetr, electronical identification, digital signature. Belgian governance works hard to include eID in more online and offline activities.

I looked around but I was not able to find this kind of module for DigID. At FOSDEM I had a talk with developers of eID module and they would be interested to look at the technology behind DigID and consider building relevant module for Dutch users. Very handy for future projects in public sector.
