I feel quite good with this defintion, but I have 2 questions about
it :
- do you want to define just "digital identity" or "digital
identity exchange" ?
- this definition seems to not imply that the "other party" can
identify uniquely the issuing party. I mean that the initial party
can provide a set of claims where nothing can be found that
identify it. For example, a set of claims conveying geographical
informations don't identifiy the party. I may be necessary (but I
may be wrong or have misunderstood the needs) to add something like
that :
Digital Identity
Definition: The digital representation of a set of Claims made
by one
Party about itself or another Digital Subject. A least one of
those claims
allow one or more other Parties to uniquely identifies the initial
Party.
I don't think you need that last sentence. I don't think you need to
uniquely identify the issuing party. I may just need to prove that I
am over 21, or part of Star Alliance.
