Advantages of blockchain technology for public administrations
ISBE provides a boost of innovation and modernisation to public administrations, enabling them to improve their efficiency, increase transparency and facilitate the connection with the European digital framework. All this through blockchain infrastructure with decentralised governance and regulatory safeguards. To this end, we have set ourselves three major challenges: modernising public services, providing legal guarantees, and facilitating coordination between the different actors involved in public administration processes.
What are the benefits of the ISBE network?
Modernising public services, reinforcing security and public confidence
To offer a better citizen experience, administrations need to digitise their procedures without compromising security, transparency and quality.
Handling files, registers or certificates in environments that are poorly interconnected, disjointed or uncoordinated makes management more expensive and difficult. ISBE's challenge is to ensure traceability and thus increase confidence.
ISBE offers digitisation with traceability and transparency
ISBE's blockchain infrastructure allows transactions to be securely recorded, facilitating the tracking of processes and improving efficiency. This serves to offer a more transparent service to the citizen and also provides the administration with a technological basis for developing new digital use cases.
Managing data and processes with full legal safeguards
Public administrations face stringent requirements in terms of data protection, identity and cybersecurity. Implementing digital solutions that align with GDPR, eIDAS2 and other frameworks requires customised measures to be taken for each project, which delays the implementation of new services and complicates the supervision of the compliance.
ISBE is a publicly licensed and secure infrastructure.
ISBE offers a transparent and secure environment. The nodes are clearly identified, operated by public and private entities, and the architecture incorporates cyber security, monitoring and continuous testing. This provides a robust network ready to support critical services.
The combination of the Business Services Catalogue with open access for consultation and permissive validation of transactions allows ISBE to offer a transparent and secure environment.
Coordinating multiple actors and systems
Public services involve different agencies, levels of administration and technology providers. In the absence of a common infrastructure, each develops its solutions in isolation, which is inefficient and makes interaction between them more complex.
ISBE offers a shared space and aligns Spanish digitisation objectives with European objectives
ISBE offers administrations a shared space, which facilitates collaboration with companies and other entities in an orderly, secure and transparent manner.
In addition, ISBE is aligned with the European digital agenda, which fosters the connection with initiatives in other countries. In this way, administrations can offer services integrated with EU policies, taking advantage of an efficient infrastructure, in line with the European Green Pact.
