Today, Azerbaijan holds a leading position in the region with 100 percent broadband internet coverage. Our country is also among the leading countries in the field of digital identity.
This was stated by President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev in his address to the participants of the World Telecommunication Development Conference of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).
The head of state emphasized that the biometric digital signature system called "SIMA" has already been adopted by 3.6 million users and integrated into more than 80 state information systems. "It is no coincidence that Azerbaijan has entered the highest category group of the UN "E-Government Development Index". Our goal is to be among the top 40 countries in this index within the next five years," President Ilham Aliyev added.
