Paper Abstract:
|
Today, individuals provide the same specific and sensible personal identifiable information to each company that they want to establish a relationship. This information is stored and used to create an identifier associated to each user call digital identity. The use of web template for companies to request the individuals information implies many security risks for both individual and company. On one hand, internet users can be victims of the identity theft attack. On the other hand, companies cannot prove the validity and legitimacy of the information received from the individual. We propose a digital pseudonym identity card to minimize the risks in the process to provide personal identifiable information. Our approach can be used as a secure and portable means to disclose sensitive information in internet. The information stored in the digital pseudonym identity card can be verifiable by the receptor. In addition, our proposal avoids binding a user from Internet to real world. |
