German implementation of eIDAS will require an Apple/Google account to function (bmi.usercontent.opencode.de)
The document outlines Germany’s Mobile Device Vulnerability Management (MDVM) for the national EUDI Wallet, aiming to prevent high-assurance eID credentials from being used on compromised devices. It describes how the wallet will use platform attestation signals (e.g., Android Key Attestation/Play Integrity and iOS DeviceCheck/App Attest plus RASP-style protections) to assess device integrity, identify device classes, consult a vulnerability database, and block key use or credential confirmation when risks are detected. The text also discusses why access to device security state requires relying on services tied to Apple/Google ecosystems, which is what the linked title highlights.
