As part of Rostelecom's standard information security solution

On September 18, 2020, Rostelecom announced that, together with CryptoPro, it had prepared a standard solution for connecting accredited certification centers to the Unified Biometric System. Now the issuance of a qualified certificate of electronic signature can be carried out without the personal presence of a citizen. Information from the Unified Identification and Authentication System (ESIA) and the Unified Biometric System will be used to identify the applicant. The use of information technologies to provide information is carried out in accordance with the provisions of article 13 of Federal Law No. 63-FZ of April 6, 2011 "On Electronic Signature," taking into account the changes made by Federal Law No. 476-FZ of December 27, 2019.

According to the company, to protect the biometric data of citizens, certifying centers can use Rostelecom's standard security solution or connect to the company's cloud information security solution. In both cases, software and hardware cryptographic modules "Crypto Pro HSM" version 2.0 and "Crypto Pro NGate" are used. More details here.
