Is BeIDConnect safe?

Clean risk

BeIDConnect lets scoped Belgian government and partner pages request eID certificate, identity, signing, and auth operations.

On configured belgium.be, fgov.be, govshare, SharePoint, and yourict.be pages, BeIDConnect exposes a page API that forwards eID requests to the local BeIDConnect native host. Those requests can include certificate, identity, digest, PIN, key usage, and authentication or signing fields supplied by the page.

Shared hosts - 2 hostnames

Hostnames hardcoded in this extension that few other listings call. That can mean one operator behind both, and it can equally mean a small shared vendor, so it is context rather than a conclusion. Hosts that many listings call are left out: they are services, not connections.

Where it sends data

Destinations our analysis observed BeIDConnect contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.

  • be.bosa.beidconnect

    BeIDConnect sends data to be.bosa.beidconnect. No other extension we have analysed sends data here.
