Abstract
A user interacts with a client containing personal identity information operable to identify the user to a relying party when the relying party is presented with claims comprising a portion of the personal identity information. The personal identity information includes one or more claims, metadata associated with the one or more claims, and backing data associated with the one or more claims. The user may initiate use of another client and seek to be identified by the relying party while interacting with the other client by first porting the personal identity information to the other client. Porting the personal identity information includes binding the personal identity information and sending the bound personal identity information to a receiving client.
