Digital identities in the form of “smartcards” have been successfully used for a variety of government-issued, card-based programs for over ten years, including national IDs, healthcare cards, government employee credentials, and even “smart” driver’s licenses. But with the proliferation of mobile phones, the idea of someone’s “identity” has now evolved to include mobile IDs, or government-issued credentials on a citizen’s mobile phone or tablet, bringing with it new levels of user convenience and data protection.

In this executive brief, find out how having both a physical and mobile ID can provide:

  • Better, faster, more efficient access to government services
  • Greater privacy and security
  • Improved mobility and the convenience of choice
  • The ability to more easily establish trust between the government and the citizen
