Towards a general purpose identity card
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many countries are currently designing or even rolling out electronic identity cards. Simultaneously, eID applications are developed. In many cases, the eID technology is initially integrated in governmental applications. Thereafter, the technology is adopted by other domains (i.e. the financial sector, eHealth services, social networking, corporate environments, ...). However, security, privacy, performance and/or scalability restrictions in current eID architectures may constrain the enormous potential of eID cards for electronic authentication. This report gives an overview of the major shortcomings of current eID designs and presents a general purpose electronic identity card that reconciles crucial concerns.
