Doubtless Identification and Privacy Preserving of User in Cloud Systems

Abstract

Present paper addresses the common challenge of compliant verification of electronic identities (eID) with legal certainty. The latter is of particular importance for banks, financial institutions, and public authorities. To ensure confidentiality, provider-proof cloud systems are a technical solution. However, they must also ensure privacy for communication from system to system.

With this document, we shall highlight, based on said challenge, our motives and pinpoint the objective of the Verifi-eID research project and its implementation. We shall then address legal considerations, followed by commonly applied provider-proof cloud security and identification measures. Lastly, we shall illuminate a possible solution, followed by a summary.
