Hi all,
This group should be interested in this updated document about privacy & identity management terminology:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hansen-privacy-terminology-01.txt
The full document titel is "Terminology for Talking about Privacy by Data Minimization: Anonymity, Unlinkability, Undetectability, Unobservability, Pseudonymity, and Identity Management" and here is the abstract:
This document is an attempt to consolidate terminology in the field
privacy by data minimization. It motivates and develops definitions
for anonymity/identifiability, (un)linkability, (un)detectability,
(un)observability, pseudonymity, identity, partial identity, digital
identity and identity management. Starting the definitions from the
anonymity and unlinkability perspective and not from a definition of
identity (the latter is the obvious approach to some people) reveals
some deeper structures in this field.
I hope someone is able to provide some review comments.
Ciao
Hannes
