What is portable digital identity?

A portable digital identity gives consumers a way to re-use their verified identity credentials across multiple devices while protecting personal data. Portable identity is a way for people to prove their legal identity safely and securely to help reduce fraud, manage data sharing, and enhance privacy.

What is a decentralized identity?

Decentralized identity applies the idea of a trust framework outlined by blockchain technologies then applies it to create anonymous identifiers for users. Under this identity and access management (IAM) approach, users create a digital identity then store the identifier in a wallet. As data breaches continue to increase, this process allows users to manage their personally identifiable information (PII) and helps protect privacy.

What is a phone identity?

Phone identity, or mobile identity, solutions are used as part of identity verification by correlating phone information with customer information, like face ID and identity documents. Once the identity service verifies the user in connection to the phone’s GSM, the phone becomes a device (something you own) that uses biometric data (something you are) so a business can ensure appropriate authentication to a service.

What is an identity mobile platform? (CIAM)

An identity mobile platform used for customer identity and access management (CIAM) correlates a phone’s sim card data with other identity information and documentation. Used as part of the authentication process, the digital identity, also called a mobile ID, protects personally identifiable information, reducing fraud risk while giving users the access they need.
