Privacy Enhancing Mobile Credentials

Ensuring identity attributes are used solely for the purpose for which the mobile credential was presented

The purpose of the PEMC Work Group is to create a set of requirements and conformance criteria to protect the privacy of individuals holding or using mobile credentials such as mobile driving licenses. This includes, but is not restricted to, technology ecosystems based on ISO/IEC 18013-5 compliant mobile driving licenses. Existing standards can provide technical and transactional assurances of user choice and data minimization at the point of presentation of the credential. However, they do not provide assurances as to the credential holder that their identity attributes will be used solely for the fulfilment of the purpose for which the mobile credential was presented. Failing to respect the consent of the credential holder or the legal authority of the verifier to collect the identity attributes could violate the privacy of the mobile credential holder.
