Towards a Personal Identity Code Respecting Privacy

Various applications on Internet require information on users, to verify their right to access services (verification of identity proofs s.a. passwords), to avoid attacks (s.a. paedophilia, profile usurpations), or to give trust to users (e.g. in social networks). In this paper, we introduce a method to generate (non-cryptographics) identity-based signatures computed from 1) collection of data from user biometrics, computer configuration, web browser fingerprinting, 2) data pre-processing, 3) protection of personal information through generation of a binary code (our signature). We illustrate the benefits of the proposed method with preliminary results on real personal information.
