Introduction

The SWAMID Policy defines an Identity Assurance Profile this way:

An Identity Assurance Profile describes levels of trust in claims and organisations. An Identity Assurance Profile allows a Relying Party to determine the degree of certainty of the identity of a Subject and its personal data. Identity assurance is to a large extent independent of the technology used to convey Claims of identity.

Levels of Assurance

• SWAMID Identity Assurance Level 1 Profile
• SWAMID Identity Assurance Level 2 Profile
• SWAMID Identity Assurance Level 3 Profile
