Definition - What does Digital Identity mean? A digit

al identity is an online or networked identity adopted or claimed in cyberspace by an individual, organization or electronic device.

Digital identity is all the online information and data specifically about an individual.

Digital identity is made up of elements that fall into four categories (source: Lionel Maurel / Fadhila Brahimi): Authentication elements: identification number, IP address, email address, user name, password, last name, first name, alias, etc. Data: personal, administrative, banking, occupational, social data, etc. Identifiers: photograph, avatar, logo, image, etc. Digital traces: contributions to blogs and other content management systems, links, etc.

Our digital identity, or tattoo, is the permanent collection of data about us that is available online.
