Estonians are pathfinders, who have built an efficient, secure and transparent ecosystem that saves time and money. e-Estonia invites you to follow the digital journey. The initial part introduces and demonstrates the underlying mechanisms involved in digitizing a society, an overview of the main challenges and policies, an understanding of the infrastructure, e-solutions and services.

The X-Road is the backbone of e-Estonia and was initiated by the Estonian government to enable secure data exchange between governmental organisations. The first version was developed by Cybernetica and launched in 2001.

X-Road is a distributed information exchange platform that makes it possible for all different systems to communicate all across the governmental sector; for example, the police can access data from the health system, tax board or business registry and vice versa.

It has enabled to increase the depth of cooperation between public organizations and reduced paper work exponentially so that public employees can concentrate on tasks that require human interaction.

Guardtime and Verizon introduce Machine State Integrity (MSI), the first step into making a data supply chain a reality. MSI is a tool that empowers real-time data validation anchored in the KSI Blockchain, to provide a layer of immutable cryptographic verifiability. MSI is designed with the very issues CIOs most care about as they move their enterprise into the cloud but with an approach that wholly fits into the Zero-Trust model. No longer are you left waiting for a monthly report from your IT team or reviewing the audit report from some third party. Instead, you get immediate alerts when data is used in some unexpected way or a security control is violated, even if just for a moment. MSI agents and cloud services together actively monitor and interrogate the cloud and the many transactions processing through the cloud.

Estonia has by far the most advanced national ID card system in the world.

Smart-ID is an app based new generation electronic identity designed to use conveniently on smart devices, while still keeping high level of security.
