Abstract:
Today, many of our daily tasks are accomplished through the use of E-services that require userâ€™s authentication based on specific number of digital identity attributes.These attributes are dependent to particular context of an Eservices provider. For an end-user, different E-services may require different sets of attributes, which reside in multiple locations. More often digital identity attributes aggregation or cohesion is needed to establish trust during the authentication process when accessing E-services. In this paper, we provide a literature review of major issues and challenges related to digital identity cohesion. In the first line, we lay a particular emphasis on technical issues and in the second line we provide an overview of major economic and ethical challenges
