Rostelecom signed the agreement with 73 territorial subjects of the Russian Federation on strategic partnership within creation of regional segments of "the electronic government". It was said by the vice president for innovations of Rostelecom Alexey Nashchekin in March, 2011 at a meeting of Council for regional informatization at the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation.

Within these agreements Rostelecom and the subjects of the Russian Federation develop information and telecommunication infrastructure for creation of regional segments of "the electronic government" and transfer to an electronic form of services of regional public authorities and local government.

Rostelecom unrolled 14 pilot regional segments of infrastructure of "the electronic government", at the same time in seven of them the company provided electronic submission of 56 regional services.

Alexey Nashchekin also announced end of the first stage of the installation program of multifunction information terminals (infomats) in regions of the Russian Federation. Within this stage the company installed 500 infomats in 21 regions of the country.

Investments into development

Rostelecom till 2015 invests 5 billion rubles in creation in regions of the elements of infrastructure necessary for creation of "the electronic government". Today the vice president of Rostelecom for the federal Nashchekin Alexey programs reported about it, acting in Krasnoyarsk on "a round table" "The electronic government: Siberian vector". "The round table" was carried out by the government of Krasnoyarsk Krai together with Rostelecom company with assistance of the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications of the Russian Federation and was devoted to regional informatization and connection of regions to the federal portal of public services.

Andrey Lipov (Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications) emphasized that "the Rostelecom company helps to carry out work on development and implementing solutions in those regions and those public authorities which will not be able to carry out such work. At the same time everything that will be already made in the region for today everything is saved and integrated into "the electronic government". "the electronic government" is the most difficult system consisting of a set of elements which are carefully checked and tested".

Creation of the solution

At the end of June, 2010 years Rostelecom announced development basic standard programmatically - technical solution for creation of regional segments of infrastructure of "the electronic government".

By request Rostelecom, specialists of two scientific centers - Higher School of Economics and Academy of National Economy was created the system project of formation of infrastructure of the electronic government. In the middle of July, 2010 at a meeting of the Government commission on information technology implementation in activity of state bodies and local government authorities this system project was approved.

In August, 2010 it became known that Rostelecom spent for the obtaining the exclusive rights to software used in regional segments of "the electronic government" more than 100 million rubles. Alexey Nashchekin, the vice president of the operator for federal programs told about this CNews. Software for rendering state services in electronic form by regional administrations it was developed by 7 IT companies, Alexey Nashchekin says, without specifying with what.

Possibilities of the solution

This solution allows each subject of the Russian Federation to create a basis of a regional segment of infrastructure of the electronic government, to implement the regional portal of state services, to provide its integration with a federal segment and gives the chance of the organization of receiving services by inhabitants of the region of regional authorities in electronic form including via the uniform portal of state services - http://www.gosuslugi.ru.

The standard regional segment of infrastructure of the electronic government includes the system of regional interdepartmental electronic interaction, an automated system of execution of regulations of rendering services, the regional portal and the register of public services, the system of identification and authentication, information payment gateways and other elements.

Distinctive features of the solution developed by Rostelecom are its compliance to the uniform technology policy which is used for creation of federal infrastructure electronic the governments, accomplishment of the state requirements for information security and personal data protection. The solution contains a full range of the services and technologies necessary for a possibility of rendering services in electronic form by regional authorities.

Lease of a packet in DPCs

Rostelecom suggests regions to unroll a packet in DPCs of Svyazinvest (this holding includes Rostelecom). After implementation, customization of software in which participate both the staff of administrations, and specialists of Rostelecom, subjects rent a packet for electronic state services. Equipments at the same time the operator remains the owner of licenses and. Nashchekin estimates an implementation time in 3-4 months.

For September, 2010 none of signed documents contains the specific amounts. Depending on the number of users in the region and as far as in it infrastructure of the operator is developed, the cost of lease of the software package will be 5-15 million rubles annually. Thus the operator will be able to compensate costs (100 million rub) for acquisition of the exclusive rights to software at the IT companies in the first year of commercial operation of regional segments of the electronic government.

Agreements with regions

Rostelecom signed agreements that "the parties consider each other as strategic partners in formation of regional segments of the electronic government and transfer of state services to an electronic form" with 17 subjects. From them with five (North Ossetia — Alania, Ingushetia, Kalmykia, Chechnya and the Volgograd region) in the middle of September. The operator calculates that the Novosibirsk region, the agreement with which should be signed on September 21, 2010, will become following.

To this term money is not received yet from one of regions. The rent will begin to arrive in 2011 when the first payments are made by 10 regions. By 2012 in commercial operation regional segments will be translated in 20 subjects, Nashchekin calculates.

The Minister of Telecom and Mass Communications Igor Shchegolev urged representatives of regions to hurry in November, 2010 with creation of an e-government system, using for this solution and service of Rostelecom. He made the corresponding statement at a meeting of Council for regional informatization.[1]

Yet on the uniform electronic portal of state services there is no regional service. According to Shchegolev, process of creation of regional segments of an e-government system and their joining with a federal segment will go much more simply and more economically if regions refuse the idea to create own IT platforms and will purchase solutions of the uniform operator of the electronic government — Rostelecom.

The minister warned colleagues from regions: "You, of course, can employ own teams of specialists in information security (for the electronic government. — Computerworld editor's note), you can create the enterprises which will pull communication lines, you can build the data processing centers. I assure you — they will be loaded for 5-7%...". According to Shchegolev, instead regions should focus on transfer of services to an electronic form, and cares of infrastructure to leave to the specialized organization — Rostelecom.

Representatives of regions are disturbed by the high cost of solutions of the uniform operator. Even the specific amounts of agreements — 15-20 million rubles were called. In reply the vice president of Rostelecom for federal programs Alexey Nashchekin reported that it is about the complete hardware-software solution with annual support and that the price of this solution is calculated separately for each region, and during creation of the similar solution from scratch regions would spend much more — 150 million rubles. Regional representatives parried that they start at all not from scratch, they already have serious practices. Nevertheless agreements on strategic cooperation with Rostelecom signed already 27 territorial subjects of the federation. In ten pilot regions there is a deployment of the unified solutions for rendering electronic services. Until the end of the year Rostelecom promises to set in the territory of the country of 500 information terminals for access to electronic state services.

Investments of the operator into creation of infrastructure of the electronic government already made more than 1 billion rubles and in the next years will grow by 5 billion rubles. The Deputy Minister of Telecom and Mass Communications Ilya Massukh reported that the state also spent nearly 1 billion rubles for these purposes, but it is expected that further private investments several times will exceed allocations of the budget.

Rostelecom will use "cloud" technologies of IBM for development of infrastructure of "the electronic government"

In May, 2011 JSC Rostelecom and IBM Vostochnaya Evropaaziya LLC signed the usage agreement of solutions of IBM, first of all, in the field of "cloud" technologies, in project practice of Rostelecom, in particular, for further development of infrastructure of "the electronic government". According to the signed agreement, in addition to already successfully proved model of use of the software SaaS (Software as a Service is providing software products in service quality), Rostelecom and IBM intend to offer users other models also organized on the basis of "cloud" IaaS technologies (Infrastructure as a Service is providing computing and network infrastructure in service quality) and PaaS (Platform as a Service is providing the integrated platform in service quality) for development, testing, deployment and support of Internet-applications.

Rostelecom and IBM also agreed to create the working group of representatives of both companies for check by practical consideration of applicability of these innovative technologies in the existing programs and projects of Rostelecom.

The technology of "cloud" calculations allows to provide to users computing resources necessary for them as Internet service. Main advantage of "cloud" technologies for the user consists in lack of costs, on acquisition, installation, updating and support of operability of the expensive server hardware and also the software working at it.

NVision Group completed development of the main information systems for "the electronic government"

The Nvision Group company developed fundamental information systems for transfer of public services to an electronic form: the portal of public services, the environment of interdepartmental electronic interaction (EIEI), the standard regional solution and also designed and unrolled infrastructure of "the electronic government". The project orderer - JSC Rostelecom.

The environment of interdepartmental electronic interaction developed by programmers of Nvision Group company became the most important binding element of the project. She not only will organize harmonious interaction and information exchange between information systems of executive authorities, but also ensures functioning of all applied public services transferred to an electronic form both on federal, and at the regional level. Thanks to the environment of interdepartmental electronic interaction the citizen on registration and receiving services in electronic form needs 3 - 5 times less time, than earlier. It concerns any public service – from obtaining the international passport, before registration of the car and payment of housing and public utilities.

The central link of the project is the Uniform portal of public services - www.gosuslugi.ru. It is uniform access point to all reference information about the public and municipal services via the Internet and also an opportunity to citizens and the organizations to receive these services in electronic form. The interface of the portal simple and intuitive, and its opportunities allow the customer of service (the citizen or the legal entity) to order service in electronic form using both special terminals infomats, and any subscriber device – the personal computer, the mobile phone, the tablet computer. By means of the Portal it is also possible to get advice (including personal) on all questions connected with the order of services.

Engineers and programmers of NVision Group performed all necessary works on creation of this portal "from scratch": developed system architecture, created all necessary regulations, organized connection of services in electronic form through the environment of interdepartmental electronic interaction. The uniform portal of public services is a centralized system and will unroll in a data processing center of JSC Rostelecom. In an architectural concept means of decentralization and scaling of a system upon transition from federal public services to services of territorial subjects of the federation and municipal entities, according to stages of development of the public services provided by the Information Society 2020 program are put.

The standard regional solution includes a regional segment of a system of interdepartmental electronic interaction and the regional portal of public services through which citizens will be able to get access to services of the region or municipality in electronic form.

At the moment all information systems are handed successfully over to the customer, works on their deployment and connection to the system of federal and regional government institutions are conducted. Along with this process activities for transfer of state services to an electronic basis are performed. Now 75 services are available to citizens of Russia in electronic form. In plans increase in their number to 250.

Also possibilities of the portal of public services are expanded – specialists of NVision Group implement services of submission of documents and the module of monitoring of course of execution of services, "personal account" with authentication mechanisms and identifications of users, the summary register of public services is developed, opportunities for remote payment of penalties, duties, etc. are developed.

Rostelecom expanded the standard solution for creation of a regional segment of "the electronic government" with functionality of release of UEC

(Yekaterinburg) Rostelecom presented the updated standard solution for creation of a regional segment of infrastructure of "the electronic government" (RIEP) including an end-to-end system of Authorized organization of the territorial subject of the federation for project implementation the Universal Electronic Card (UEC) at the Innoprom of 2011 exhibition. The new version of RIEP allows the territorial subject of the federation to perform registration, release and issue of universal electronic cards, the organization of collection points for statements and issues of cards and also interaction with banks, the centers of production and personalisation of cards.

For this purpose the structure of RIEP included two new components – an information system of collection points for statements and issue of cards (ICs PPV) and automated information system of maintaining the register UEK (AIS RUEK). Now reception of applications on release, service and issue of UEC, can be provided as directly in issue point, so in electronic form via the uniform portal of public services using personal access devices (the computer, the Set-top box, the smartphone, the tablet) and social systems (EDS infomats, bank payment terminals).

Certificates of compliance to requirements of information security of klyuchevyy components of "the electronic government"

JSC Rostelecom received the certificates of compliance to requirements of information security appropriated to key components of infrastructure of "the electronic government" in July, 2011. According to the received documents, the certified infrastructure components of "the electronic government" conform to the state requirements for organizational information technical protection, for data protection from unauthorized access and personal data protection.

In Moscow certificates were appropriated to the integrated automated system of a federal segment of infrastructure of "the electronic government" and the system of certification centers of common trusted area of "the electronic government". Certificates of compliance were also appropriated to regional segments of infrastructure of "the electronic government". According to orders of the Government of the Russian Federation, Rostelecom is the only contractor regarding design, creation and operation of infrastructure of "the electronic government".
