Identification

'The process by which an identities' information is gathered and verified for accuracy'

The Identification Section contains general concepts used to describe the nature of digital assets that are, or are used to establish (and remove) links to objects in the real world which do have either directly or indirectly a relationship to a human being.

[Further descriptions, eg mention 'Joiner' and 'Leaver' concepts.]

The four sublevels

• Identities
• digital|social|online|philosophical identities, entities: Describe identities and its many facets, PII,...
  
• Gathering/ Providing
  
• how these informations are collected and aggregated
  
• claims, attributes, relations, self-provided, stolen,....
• ethics
  
• Verification
• verified and non-verified data and its use
• Trust Levels
  
• Process? Privacy?
  

I am not sure about the fourth sublevel, maybe someone has a better idea?

Hi (BoKkers) Group,

during todays meeting (minutes here) we decided to discuss the Toplevels and each of their 4 sublevels in more detail. To speed up the process and by triggering the group, I will create 4 Mailthreads for each toplevel to be used for discussion.

Each of these Mailthread should, best by next monday

• have found a 'leader' who will take responsibility for the discussion
• have found 4 sublevels (so 4 areas that can be used to further sort processes, terms, knowledge,etc) within the given toplevel
• have seen a great level of discussion

For sure the most important part here is to find someone who will lead and drive the discussion, or is even willing to take over one of the areas on his/her own. So if you can spent 1-2 hrs of your available time, it would be much appreciated!

The first mailthread is the one you are reading here right now, the others will be 'Management', 'Authentication', 'Authorization'.

Thnks for your contribution

Hi all,

During todays meeting (minutes here) we discussed further refinements for the Dart- Board-Model, especially on the 'upper layer' which deals with Identity Management topics only, while relying on the lower three layers for operation,implementation,planning.

Our next goal is to 'slice the cake', to find sublevels to the four TopLevels we decided to start with so far. The sublevels mentioned below (in green) are just examples.

The best case scenario for this would be to find four generic terms within each of the TopLevels.

• Identification
  Processes around validating identities (digital or physical) and as the 'entry'/'leave' point on a given domain.This does NOT deal with Authentication!
  
• Proof/Verification
• Register
• De-Register
• Data Portability (Transfer)
• Management
  Processes around the management of Identity Data
  
• Enrollment
• Dis-Enrollment
• Privacy
  
• Federation
  
• Authorization
  Processes related to Authorization
  
• ...
  
• ...
• ...
• ...
• Authentication
  Processes related to Authentication
  
• 
  
• ...
• ...
• ...

Finally, to check the validity of the model, we will investigate typical IAM-Topics if we are able to find appropriate paths to describe the given topic in the model.

here is a quick example on how I think this model could be applied (example used: 'Identity Provider')

• Function of an 'Identity Provider'
• Needs to offer functions from 'Identification' to
  
• validate a given Identity against real or other digital data
• Following Process ABC
  
• using technology XYZ
• ...further definitions on the lower layers (Operations, implementations,planning)
  
• (do we need to add a layer for legal aspects?)
• Management
• ...
• Authorization
• ...
• Authentication
• ...

So the Task (especially for those who gave their commitment to the BoK/Taxonomy) is to

• Find propper sublevels as described above
• exercise typical usecases from the IDM World against the model
  

Thanks in advance,

for the BoK-Subgroup

Thorsten
