National mobile operators Vodafone and lifecell plan to launch Mobile ID in 2018. The news agency LIGABusinessInform reports on this in reference to the companies' press services.

Plastic Card Ltd has developed and presented to the market the software and hardware system that provides Mobile ID services support.

The main feature of the system is allowing users, both individuals and legal entities to obtain quick and simple authentication of various web resources and to be able to confirm actions using only a mobile phone and an electronic digital signature.

This service can be widely used on government service portals, e-commerce websites, remote banking systems, internal enterprise document management systems and many more.

According to the Plastic Card Ltd developers' plan, Mobile ID service will be provided in the variants of Phone ID and Smart ID, i.e. depending on the specifics of users' technical interaction with conventional mobile phones or smartphones. This solution also enables the central server of the Mobile ID system to interact with an unlimited number of Web resources, accredited key certification centers and enterprise mobile systems operators. The application for SIM cards, which provides the generation and use of cryptographic keys, has also been created specifically for the purposes of this service. The implementation of the national cryptographic algorithm DSTU 4145 and the international RSA used for the digital signature has been approved by the State Service of Special Communication and Protection. Currently, the solution is being tested jointly with the Plastic Card Ltd partners.
