What is a Digital Identity Trust Framework?

“Digital Identity”• Identity: A reference or designation used to

distinguish a unique and particular individual, organization or device.

• Trusted Digital Identity: ‘a trusted electronic representation of who I am.’

“Framework”• Digital Identity Trust Frameworks define

the ‘rules of the road’ for interactions between organizations when handling identity, authentication and authorization. Often, these Frameworks form the basis of agreements and contracts.
