Infrastructure|Traficom wants to ensure the security of the implementation model.
State Council announced on Mondaythat the Minister of Transport, Communications and the Interior Lulu Wrist (ps.) has ordered the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom to suspend the agency’s preparation location e-service commissioning.
The suspension was justified by the overall safety situation.
“The agency is looking at the functionality and implementation model of the service as well as alternative solutions together with the security authorities,” Ranne said in the press release.
General manager of Traficom’s information and future connections division Emil Aspin According to the suspension, it is only a matter of adding time.
“We want to be absolutely sure that the implementation model is definitely safe.”
According to Aspi, the reason behind the decision is the generally changed security situation. Security-related concerns are not directed at the service itself, but at how the implementation model generally relates to the current security environment.
From the location information service during its development there has been an extensive public discussion specifically related to safety. Helsingin Sanomi has also published several opinion pieces on the subject sides and otherwise.
According to Aspi, the location information service is intended to facilitate construction. The background is the Co-construction Act issued under the Co-construction Directive.
According to Traficom, those who plan and implement earthworks in the future will have information about possible network infrastructure locations and other relevant information from one place.
No so-called critical infrastructure data is entering the service, i.e. data whose compromise could cause a significant public danger or weaken national security.
Aspen information security has been taken into account in the development of the service from the beginning. On behalf of Traficom, the location information service would be almost ready for production.
“Let’s try to go through it as quickly as possible.”
The service, developed by Traficom, was supposed to be opened for production use this month and for location survey authors in the spring.
