The mojeID service has 600,000 users

Last year we also managed to implement mojeID to the IS STAG information system for universities, developed by West Bohemian University. The mojeID service is also used to verify the identity of winners in the Účtenkovka receipt lottery, and have been recommended by experts as an appropriate tool to check the customer’s age in e-shops for smokers.

On the 5th of February, the number of users of the mojeID service reached 600,000. MojeID is a unique service that for the last eight years has provided the Czech Internet community with the option to log in to various web services with a single login name and password. MojeID has been implemented by many providers including e-shops, community servers, or public administration bodies. MojeID is operated by the CZ.NIC Association, the administrator of the Czech national domain and it is completely free of charge for users.

“Over the past year, we have prepared several new features for the users of our service. Account owners can now have more options for password reset, and for security reasons, we have modified our password policy. In 2017, we also expanded our network of validation spots in the regions from thirty to fifty,” says Ondřej Písek, Marketing Director of the CZ.NIC Association.

The most exciting technical improvements of the mojeID service include online validation via a databox of a natural person. “In 2016, we began accepting validation requests sent from databoxes with the active sender identification. Compared to other methods, this method proved to be very popular, so we decided to go further and allow databox holders complete online validation, where all they have to do is to log in to their databox system and confirm the transfer of data”, says Jaromír Talíř, who is in charge of the technical development of the mojeID service.
