The FASTeTEN Project focuses on deploying Fully Automated Secured Transactions services in European administrative contexts. The project aims to support the European Commission's eGov objectives by providing flexible tools for administrations. It involves adaptation of services from French to Spanish and UK government settings. The project, funded from 01/01/2007 to 31/12/2009, establishes a trust infrastructure for secure data exchange across different administration levels. The deployment initially targets the Valencia region in e-Procurement and the Department of Education in the UK. Future plans include extending the project to Belgium, Hungary, Italy, Bulgaria, and Malta. Key elements of the project include secure data exchange, long-term electronic evidence, security mechanisms, interoperability, and extensibility. The project emphasizes creating legal evidence for various administrative purposes such as e-procurement, urbanism, education, welfare, health, and more.
