USING MULTIPLE DIGITAL IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS TO CONTROL INFORMATION DISCLOSURE
First Claim
1. A computer program product for managing digital identification documents, the computer program product comprising a computer readable hardware storage device having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by at least one computer to cause the at least one computer to:
- transmit a plurality of digital identification documents identifying an individual to a computer of the identified individual, each digital identification document of the plurality of digital identification documents including a differing set of attributes about the identified individual and a digital signature;
receive a selected digital identification document of the plurality of digital identification documents from a first mobile device of the identified individual;
analyze the digital signature of the selected digital identification document; and
confirm the validity of the selected digital identification document.

Abstract
A first digital identification document is transmitted from an identification authority to a mobile device of an identified individual. This first digital identification document is digitally signed and includes a set of attributes about the identified individual. In the same manner, a second digital identification document is also transmitted to the identified individual'"'"'s mobile device. The second digital identification document is also digitally signed but includes a different set of attributes about the identified individual. The identified individual is then confronted by a series of challengers, wherein each challenger requires a different amount of information about the identified individual. Based on the identity of each challenger, the identified individual selects an appropriate identification document and transmits it to the applicable challenger'"'"'s device. The challenger is then able to confirm both the information he needs about the identified individual and the validity of the identification document that he receives.

15. A computer program product for managing digital identification documents, the computer program product comprising a computer readable hardware storage device having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by at least one computer to cause the at least one computer to:
-
provide a first user interface, via a first mobile device of an individual, whereby the individual can cause a first digital identification document of a plurality of digital identification documents identifying the individual to be created according to preferences of the identified individual by selecting for inclusion in a first set of attributes about the identified individual a first subset of available attributes among a plurality of available attributes about the identified individual and by causing the first mobile device of the identified individual to transmit the selection of the first subset of available attributes for inclusion in the first set of attributes to a computer system of a representative of an identification authority; receive from the computer system of the representative of the identification authority, on the first mobile device of the identified individual, the plurality of digital identification documents, each of the plurality of digital identification documents including a differing plurality of attributes about the identified individual, wherein the plurality of digital identification documents includes the first digital identification document that was created by the computer system of the representative of the identification authority in response to the receipt of the transmission of the selection of the first subset of available attributes for inclusion in the first set of attributes; provide a second user interface, via the first mobile device of the identified individual, whereby the identified individual can make a selection of a digital identification document of the plurality of digital identification documents; and transmit, based on the first selection, the selected digital identification document from the first mobile device of the identified individual to a first challenger'"'"'s device of a first challenger, whereby the first challenger is able to determine the validity of the selected digital identification document using the first challenger'"'"'s device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)
