Question 17890 — digital

Summary

Mr. Antoine Golliot draws the attention of the Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial, Energy and Digital Sovereignty to the risks linked to the transmission and storage of copies of identity documents as part of the generalization of electronic invoicing. Recent hacks of the information system of the General Directorate of Public Finances (DGFiP), which allowed the consultation and extraction of data concerning 700,000 individuals and professionals, remind us that no computer system is completely safe from a breach, including within administrations with significant cybersecurity resources. In recent years, many administrations and companies have been victims of data leaks. These may expose particularly sensitive information, such as banking details or copies of identity documents, with significant risks of identity theft and fraud. However, the generalization of electronic invoicing may lead companies and entrepreneurs to transmit a copy of their identity document to private platforms as part of verification procedures. The multiplication of these transmissions and the storage of these documents necessarily increases the risks in the event of hacking or data leak. Under these conditions, it appears essential that the implementation of this reform be preceded by sufficient guarantees regarding the protection of personal data and the security of identification procedures. Thus, he asks whether the Government intends to postpone the entry into force of the electronic invoicing obligation, as long as sufficient guarantees are not provided to companies and entrepreneurs regarding the protection of their identity documents and personal data.
