Abstract

Efficient eGovernment and eCommerce require the ability to authenticate citizens and transactions online, whereas the increasing mobility of citizens demands reliable identification. Identity documents tend to become the most popular form of identity tokens used for these purposes. An important problem, however, is that they can easily be passed on or used by a fraudster. We discuss the use of identity documents and the problem of linking these documents with their genuine holder. We discuss ePassports and eID cards in general using the Belgian identity documents as a reference.
