Specific security considerations

Article 6

1.   The verification tool shall be designed and implemented to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of processed data and to ensure non-repudiation of transactions. The technical and organisational implementation of it shall meet the requirements of the ETIAS security plan referred in Article 59(3) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1240 and of the rules on data protection and security applicable to the public website and the app for mobile devices referred to in Article 16(10) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1240. 2.   The verification tool shall be designed in a way that precludes unlawful access to the verification tool. For this purpose, the verification tool shall limit the number of attempts to access the tool with the same travel document and unique code. The tool shall also include measures to protect against non-human behaviour. 3.   The verification tool shall also include time-out measures after some minutes of inactivity. 4.   Additional details concerning the confidentiality, integrity and availability of processed data shall be subject of the technical specifications referred to in Article 73(3) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1240.
