Scope of this Document

 

This document is directed to an audience of academics, EU policy-makers, experts from technological, social science and legal disciplines and interested citizens. It contains an overview on existing and planned identity management systems (IMS). The overview is by no means comprehensive, but major types, classes and subclasses of IMS are described and examples of existing IMS including some prototypes and concepts are given. In addition representative designs are included as privacy enhancing concepts illustrated by examples of implementation of those concepts.  

This study is focused on IMS types, such as account management systems (type 1) and user-controlled context-dependent role and pseudonym management (type 3). For the IMS type profiling systems (type 2), only a few examples are given. Profiling systems will be examined under technological, privacy-related and legislative aspects, among others, in Workpackage 7 (Deliverables 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4).
