Digital Identity: Key Trends
The key trends that are associated with the digital identity theme can be classified into three categories: technology trends, macroeconomic trends, and regulatory trends.
Technology trends: The key technological trends that will shape the digital identity theme are the introduction of one identity log-in for government services, matching the identity need to the service, tackling the digital inclusion challenge, and the development of device and workload identities, among others. For instance, digital services generally require different levels of identity assurance based on their associated risks. Money being paid into government—e.g., taxes generally have a lower security level than money being paid out. Government departments worldwide tend to walk a fine line between having enough identity assurance and creating barriers for people to be able to access services because of the realization that identity verification is too complex for users to complete.
Macroeconomic trends: The key macroeconomic trends that will shape the digital identity theme are COVID-19 as a catalyst for digital identity, the US’ digital identity laggard, the need for better communication on digital identity, the reliance of digital identity adoption on user need, and China’s leading position in digital identity. For instance, COVID-19 has been a catalyst for digital identity adoption in countries worldwide such as India. With one billion accounts linked to people’s Aadhaar identity numbers, (biometric identity system) India could channel help to where it was most needed with maximum efficiency. Contrast that with the US, where 90 million paper cheques were sent via ‘snail mail,’ accompanied by a signed letter from President Donald Trump. There is little doubt that COVID-19 has increased the use of digital identity, with mutually recognized and interoperable COVID-19 vaccination certificates also enabling greater international movement for populations largely denied international travel for over two years.
Regulatory trends: The key regulatory trend that will shape the digital identity theme is the alignment of national digital identity legislation.
