On 4 October 2022, the EU Council of Ministers adopted the Digital Services Act which will enter into force within 15 months, i.e. by 1 January 2024. The Digital Services Act (DSA) has been published in the Official Journal of the European Union. The DSA amends the eCommerce Directive 2000/31/EC and introduces new requirements for online intermediary services including online marketplaces, internet service providers, cloud providers, search engines, social networks, and content-sharing platforms.

It establishes standards for accountability across online platforms and enhances user protection online. The Digital Services Act aims to create a transparent and safe online space to safeguard users against illegal content, online discrimination, and cyber assault. The DSA is expected to bring forward new consumer protection rules in the online environment and provide opportunities for digital businesses.

Under the DSA, online platforms will be required to promptly delete illegal content, including counterfeit and dangerous goods. They must have mechanisms in place allowing users to flag illegal online content. Under the "know your business customer" principle, online marketplaces may be compelled to track their traders, and any dark patterns intended to influence users' online behavior are severely forbidden. Data intermediaries that are used by more than 10 percent of EU consumers or large online platforms with more than 45 million monthly active users have additional requirements.

eu digital services risk assessment

Risk Assessments

Recital 80, Article 34, Article 35

Securiti's Assessment Solution allows organizations to assess any significant and systemic risks arising from the services they intend to use and take measures to mitigate the identified risks.

This will allow large online platforms to address the dissemination of illegal content, any adverse effect on fundamental rights of individuals, and any intentional manipulation of their services in their risk assessments and take steps to mitigate the risks.

Key Obligations Under Digital Services Act

  • Allows users to report unlawful content online and requires platforms to work with specialized "trusted flaggers" to find and delete illegal content.
  • New regulations to track sellers on internet marketplaces foster trust and make it easier to catch scammers.
  • Measures to increase transparency across the board for online platforms, such as improved disclosure of terms and conditions and information on the algorithms used to promote products or content to consumers.
  • Ensuring online platforms protect against dangers like election rigging or disinformation, cyberviolence against women, or harm to children online.
  • Prohibit targeted advertisements based on special categories of personal information, such as a person's race, religion, or sexual orientation.
  • A prohibition on the use of "dark patterns," or deceptive techniques on user interfaces used to persuade people to make decisions they did not mean to make.
