Impact on SMEs (4th Open Call)
The involved standards are useful so that Europe is involved in this type of cybersecurity, which may affect future EU directives.
Impact on SMEs (8th Open Call)
The extended ITU-T X.510 | ISO/IEC 9594-11 is expected to be an important specification for cryptographic algorithm migration which is essential in the light of future developments of quantum computers. The cryptographic pluck-in capabilities are also important as they will
ease migration, and they will allow different areas of the world to have their own choice of cryptographic algorithms.Moreover, this standard provideslean protocols with a minimum of overhead providing cybersecurity to other protocols (security by simplifications). This in particular important for constrained devices, like IoT devices.
Impact on society (4th Open Call)
Every aspect of cybersecurity has a high priority. Access control needs to be timely in place to prevent unauthorised access.
Impact on society (6th Open Call)
This updated standard will allow users (relying parties) to access certificate information for the whole of Europe and be a significant contributor to the single market. The two priorities selected are cybersecurity and interoperability.
The whole scope of DPKI and the proposed access secure protocols are primarily related to cybersecurity. The proposed access protocol will use robust and trusted cryptographic algorithms to protect the protocols. It is prepared for migration to quantum resistant cryptographic algorithms (crypto agility).
In parallel, any communication protocol is designed for interoperability and the two proposed protocols are no exception. Interoperability is a necessity.

Impact on SMEs (6th Open Call)
My work has a direct impact on European SMEs and society. By contributing to standards like ISO/IEC 27560 and the EUDI Wallet Access Control in CEN TC224/WG20, I help create practical, privacy-focused frameworks that SMEs can adopt with minimal cost and complexity. These standards enable GDPR-compliant consent, transparency, and data minimization, reducing legal risk and building user trust.
Impact on SMEs (9th Open Call)
My work simplifies GDPR compliance for European SMEs by developing standards that make privacy receipts and access control both practical and cost-effective. By embedding lawful bases and user-facing transparency into consent and data access records, SMEs can demonstrate accountability while reducing legal risk. For society, this promotes stronger digital rights, user agency, and trust in the EUDI Wallet ecosystem.
Impact on society (6th Open Call)
In terms of broader European interests, my fellowship contributes to EU goals of digital sovereignty, user empowerment, and privacy leadership on the global stage. As the EUDI wallet is adopted across Europe, this framework will provide a scalable model for data protection and user-centric identity management that can be extended beyond digital wallets to other data-sharing contexts, enhancing Europe’s role as a privacy leader. With data privacy becoming a key competitive factor, this initiative not only strengthens the protection of EU citizens’ rights but also sets a high standard for digital identity solutions globally.
Impact on society (9th Open Call)
My work supports fundamental societal values by helping define how citizens can safely and transparently share their personal data through the European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet. At the heart of this is the development of access control standards that ensure individuals are not just passive data subjects, but active participants who can decide what data is shared, with whom, under what conditions, and for what declared purpose.
By enabling these controls through enforceable, machine-readable policies, the standard empowers users to exercise real agency over their digital identity—moving beyond consent screens toward meaningful privacy protections embedded in the architecture of the wallet itself. This aligns with the EU’s commitment to privacy, data minimisation, and purpose limitation under the GDPR.
The work also supports societal inclusion by ensuring that access control mechanisms are transparent and usable, helping citizens understand their rights and obligations, while also simplifying compliance for service providers. The inclusion of ISO/IEC 27560 in this framework ensures that all lawful bases for processing—not just consent—are clearly documented and traceable, which is especially important for use cases like healthcare, education, or public services.
Importantly, the open availability of ISO/IEC 27560 as a free standard lowers the barrier for adoption, supporting uptake by public administrations, SMEs, and civil society. This ensures that privacy-enhancing technologies are not limited to large commercial actors, but can benefit all layers of European society.
Overall, this work contributes to a more trustworthy, transparent, and citizen-centric digital identity ecosystem—one that upholds European values while supporting innovation, cross-border interoperability, and regulatory alignment.

Impact on society (7th Open Call)
Technology for Biometric System-on-Card (BSoC) has advanced significantly since the first publication of the ISO/IEC 17839 series from 2014-2016. This made an amendment of part 2 necessary in 2021 and a revision started 2022/2023. The major gaps are that the currently published standards partially refer to outdated technology and do not cover many recent industry developments in the field of BSoC. This includes enrolment methodologies, sensor and card manufacturing, but also processes and usage of biometric cards. The priority is to consider all inputs from national bodies, come to a consensus and progress the standard series according to the ISO business plan. Challenges are divers inputs from industry delegates targeting different solutions. It is important to include all contributions from national bodies while keeping the timeline mandated by the ISO business plan.
