Identity: A set of attributes that uniquely identify a person.
(World Bank Group and GPFI, 2018, p. viii)
Identity information associated with an entity can be grouped as follows:
• identifiers (e.g., UserID, e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, URI and IP addresses);
• credentials (e.g., digital certificates, tokens and biometrics); and
• attributes (e.g., roles, claims, privileges, patterns and location).
ITU, 2009, p. 5
