Tuesday, it was announced by the Bank ID digi.no have plan ready to chucked out Java from its service. The new solution, named Bank ID 2.0, was presented at a conference on Wednesday afternoon. There we learned that the new solution is unlikely to be ready soon.
Frode Beckmann Nilsen has led pilot project that the summer must submit a final plan for the rollout of a new, Java-free experience for BankID customers will manifest.
He admitted that the speed at which the work will go largely depend on banks’ willingness to pay. That would cost.
But how will BankID replace the Java client? They will build a web application based on known standards in HTML5 and CSS3, told Bechmann Nilsen at the meeting digi.no attended.
– We go for a solution based on standard web technology, how we use HTML5, CSS, JavaScript. This will put some requirements on machines like this to run on, so we do not get all of us, says Bechmann Nilsen. There will be a limit with IE8 or lower – they need to upgrade to use the service.
– But we hope proportion IE8 users will be lower when we are ready than it is today. But we are going to market this well. For other browsers, we see that people largely have the latest versions, says Bechmann Nilsen.
But you can not escape “dongle” or code chip, if you have not bankID on mobile. They will in fact make minimal changes to the economic system solution.

They have set two clear requirements for the new solution: It should work regardless of the client software. One should therefore not have to download anything on your computer to get this gonna work. The second requirement is that it should be available on all platforms. The solution shall respond optimally regardless of whether you are using the application via a tablet, a mobile phone or a PC. And of course: It should work on both iOS, Android and other operating systems – so long as they adhere to known standards.
BankID project has also discussed whether they should invest in native apps, but came that this was a strategy that could quickly become tiresome and counterproductive. This means that you have to create your own custom applications a myriad of platforms, operating systems, etc.
Bechmann Nilsen admitted BankID had clung to Java for a long time. It was not the real security of customers that was the reason why they are now changing, it was the perceived safety. Constant media reports (including here on digi.no) about the poor security in Java has created anxious customers who call the banks customer service.
But Java had BankID some strong advantages, which made the perhaps clutching so whether long:
– Are you running bankID-solutions in the browser as it is in a separate sandbox and it allows us to look deep into the hardware of the user. With a web-based solution, this is different. When we are more dependent on the security of the browser, and we have reduced access to hardware information, says Bechmann Nilsen.
Bank ID has not yet taken a position on suppliers or how this will be driven forward, but both KnowIT and Bouvet participated in the pilot project with the major banks, Nets and Banks standardization office.
