Abstract:
In a world where the cross-border exchange of diverse data and its processing by information systems, including AI, have become commonplace, there is an increasing demand for environments that enable individuals to benefit from data-driven technologies while safeguarding individual's rights. Such environments are underpinned by the creation of a responsible data ecosystem, comprising interoperable data models, exchange protocols, authentication and authorisation mechanisms, security technologies, and comprehensive governance frameworks. This presentation explores the standardisation processes of digital identity architectures—particularly in light of developments such as UK Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF), eIDAS and the EU Digital Identity Wallet—as a key element within this ecosystem.
