Digital
identity defined. Your digital identity consists of various pieces of information about you—in digital form—that, when put together, point to you. Such pieces
of information are often called “data attributes”. Still, it's worth trying to
stay on top of how you handle your personal
information. Historically, we
have assumed that people are better at checking and verifying identities than
computers.
A
digital identity arises organically from the use of personal
information on the web and from the shadow data created by the individual's actions online. A
digital identity may be a pseudonymous profile linked to the device's IP address, for example, or a randomly-generated unique ID.
However, technology has
recently become better than people. There is by definition a need for
regulations to be up to date with these results and allow computers to start
performing these tasks instead of humans. Digital Identity is a very
interesting trend to watch.
