Survey VIN, 2016 Q1 Benefits Barriers and risks Capability to securely exchange confidential micro-data Opportunity to extend this benefit to other statistical domains beyond SIMSTAT Barriers and risks Complexity of involving many stakeholders Dependency on third-party at the national level Availability of resources for the deployment and the integration with the existing national solutions Need to adhere to national security protocols

Progress status - planning Phase 1 (2015-2016) Secure network infrastructure for the pilot on microdata exchange for project SIMSTAT Phase 2 (2016-2017) Connect rest of ESS members to the secure network infrastructure Extend the data exchange services to other statistical domains Phase 3 (2018) Integrate with new generations of secure networks

Connection of ESS members European networks converging CCN migrating to TESTA Different presence in ESS Members CCN: located in Taxations and Customs administrations TESTA: located in National Networks Proof-of-concept to evaluate TESTA services Grants ESSNet - 2 work packages foreseen, 3 workshops to be organised, report to be produced. - Eurostat working currently on the technical problems derived from the end of support of Java on the browsers (WebForms and secure upload). - The project would like to incorporate other requirements from ESS Members.

Extension to other domains Modernisation of EDAMIS Migration of applet-based functionality Use of ESDEN for other Currently: tightly coupled with SIMSTAT Future Integration with EDAMIS Development of web services Use of standards, automation Make it easier to integrate with national infrastructures Grants ESSNet - 2 work packages foreseen, 3 workshops to be organised, report to be produced. - Eurostat working currently on the technical problems derived from the end of support of Java on the browsers (WebForms and secure upload). - The project would like to incorporate other requirements from ESS Members.

Involvement of ESS Members Grants To help ESS Members in the effort to connect to secure European networks ESSNet To allow ESS Members to contribute to the definition of the requirements of ESDEN To collaborate in the testing of the software delivered by the project Grants ESSNet - 2 work packages foreseen, 3 workshops to be organised, report to be produced. - Eurostat working currently on the technical problems derived from the end of support of Java on the browsers (WebForms and secure upload). - The project would like to incorporate other requirements from ESS Members.

Phase 2 – Timeline Action When Enhancement of the ESDEN software developed by Eurostat to further automate the data exchange  2016 Q1 Launch of connectivity grants to help the remaining countries to connect to the secure network 2016 Q3 Connection of the remaining countries to the secure network 2016 Q4 Launch of ESSNet for the collaboration of the countries Modernisation of the Single Entry Point based on the results of the first phase of the project 2017 Q4

The future – phase 3 At the end of phase 2: Assessment of the services of the new generation of the secure network Consultation with the ESSC on the implementation of phase 3 If approved Upgrade the network connection to the new generation of EC secure network Kick-off production operations: go-live
