CIAM & Identity Fundamentals

Type
Description
What is user management?
User management covers creating, organizing, updating, and deactivating user accounts and their access throughout the identity lifecycle.
What is an identity fabric?
An identity fabric is a unified architectural layer that connects an organization's identity systems into one consistent framework across users, apps.
What is portable (reusable) identity?
Portable or reusable identity lets customers verify once and reuse that verified identity across services, cutting repeat verification and onboarding.
What are verifiable credentials?
Verifiable credentials are tamper-evident, cryptographically signed digital proofs of identity attributes that anyone can verify instantly without contacting.
What is self-sovereign identity (SSI)?
Self-sovereign identity (SSI) is a model where individuals fully own and control their digital identity and credentials without depending on any central.
What is consent management?
Consent management is how businesses capture, store, and honor customers' permissions for collecting and using their personal data, in line with GDPR.
What is progressive profiling?
Progressive profiling collects customer data gradually across interactions instead of all at once, cutting signup friction while enriching profiles over time.
What is identity federation?
Identity federation lets users access systems across different domains using one identity, via trust standards like SAML, OAuth 2.0, and OIDC.
What is single sign-on (SSO)?
Single sign-on (SSO) lets users authenticate once and access multiple applications without logging in again.
