Identity Attributes Management
While the overall result of the ID&V operations can be viewed through the LOA in terms of success or failure, the identity of a specific user is created using an aggregation of all data from the "VERIFIED" evidences for that identity.
The pieces of identity evidence are correlated by using key identity components, matching names and date of birth.
This prevents the following scenarios:
- Mixing data from different users into a user's identity
- Inclusion of fraudulent/non-relevant data into the user's identity
Example of Evidences for User Identity
Below are examples of evidences (i.e., passport and drivers license) that contribute to creating the user's identity:
-
Each evidence has key identity elements that allows ID&V to correlate them to the same user Identity.
-
All data unique to the one of the evidences is aggregated at the Identity level.
Identity Structure
The Identity that ID&V generates contains all data that has been processed and organized using a logic explained hereafter.
There are different sections in the identity that provide different types of information:
-
ID&V Status: This is the section that details the overall result of the ID Proofing transaction.
-
ID&V Outputs: This includes sections that are a product of the ID&V processes and are linked to several ID&V Evidences.
- Example: The
attributessection contains all information regarding the user identity based on all provided inputs and evidences.
- Example: The
-
ID&V Evidences: This includes sections that detail information about an evidence processed by ID&V.
-
Example: The
idDocumentssection contains details from the document (e.g., Drivers License) and status information.
Identity Sections
The identity section names are described below.
Type of Section | Identity Section Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ID&V Status | globalStatus | Contains information relative to the whole identity proofing transaction |
| ID&V Outputs | attributes | Contains all information regarding the user identity based on all available evidences and provided data |
| ID&V Outputs | addresses | Contains all information regarding the user addresses based on all available evidences and provided data |
| ID&V Evidences | consents | Lists all explicit consents that were given by the relying service to ID&V to process the data submitted |
| ID&V Evidences | portrait | Contains details regarding processing of the user's portrait and it's biometric matching |
| ID&V Evidences | idDocuments | Contains details regarding all ID Documents associated with the identity |
| ID&V Evidences | Others | Other evidences may include healthCards, certificates, contactDetails, and trustedIdClaim |
