In the widespread context of Simpl-Open, Security is crucial to protect EU resources. As it will be described in Annex 6, security capabilities are constantly active. The agreed level of security encryption and integrity on every data transmission or resource deployment must be granted for the consumer at any time. For this reason, any provision of a resource will be inevitably deployed along with the security block, providing strong end-to-end security guarantees of all data that is handled by Simpl-Open.
