What is eDAMIS ?
eDAMIS is an environment which :
 Implements the concept of the Single Entry Point (SEP)
 Usage is simple (no installation on the user PC)
 Provides adapted solutions to several needs and users
profiles (NSI and other organisations)
 Facilitates fully automated data transmissions
 Guaranties secure transmissions
 Maintains a high level of availability of services (checks
every 10-30 minutes the availability of the services)
 Offers value added services such as: traffic monitoring,
acknowledgements, reminders …

Facts and figures
 eDAMIS (eWA) is used today by all NSI’s
 In 2004, the coverage of the SEP was around 20%
(remaining 80% being mainly personal emails)
 In 2007, SEP coverage reaches 40%
 Higher usage for NSI’s (close to 100% of coverage for some
of them)
 Targeting 100% of coverage for all regular transmissions
from all data providers

eDAMIS and Confidentiality

eDAMIS always provides a secure (encrypted) data
transmission channel in transit (on Internet)

For confidential data, eDAMIS uses a public key for
providing a second level of encryption which guaranties
that data is delivered encrypted in the Eurostat secure
environment (and decrypted there with a private key)

In all cases, encryption is transparent for the data
senders

Special cases and exceptions:
• all Organisations having eWA installed (not only NSI) should use eWA to send their data
• in case of problem in eWA, eWP could be used in NSI as fail over solution to send data to Eurostat
• NSI should use Web Forms in eWP unless they can send directly a SDMX-ML file via eWA
