Authentication service of the Swiss authorities AGOV
AGOV is a project that makes the login functionalities of the CH-LOGIN of the federal administration, which has existed for many years, accessible to all administrative levels in Switzerland (municipalities, cities, cantons, federal government) (previously only the federal government). In future, the state-recognised e-ID will be approved as proof of identification for the login process.
The measure is intended to make the interoperability of the authorities' logins, including possibilities for a future state E-ID, tangible. The primary objective is to reduce barriers to digital cooperation (e-government). This is to be achieved with the uniform login AGOV. This will benefit Digital Switzerland because e-government will become easier and the E-ID can be used immediately from its launch.
The service is part of the standard services of the Federal Chancellery, DTI division. The client for the project is Digital Administration Switzerland (DPSS).
