Abstract

For consumers, citizens, employees or even producers, digital identity is the passport to the vast online world of goods and services. With the growth of digital e-commerce transactions, communications, social networks, and connected objects, needs for both privacy and secure, reliable identification become both more and more crucial. Reliable digital identities provide a means of distinguishing an individual using attributes (age, gender, address, login, password, biometric data, and so on). This makes possible the development of online communities and online transactions.
