1. A method, comprising:

  • receiving, based on a credential and at a terminal device outside a first domain and a second domain mutually exclusive from the first domain, a credential-owner authentication information associated with (1) an identity of a subject entity, and (2) a request for entity-specific information associated with the subject entity from a relying entity within the first domain, the first domain being at least one of a physical domain or a virtual domain;

    authenticating the identity of the subject entity based on the credential-owner authentication information; and

    sending, based on the request for entity-specific information and in response to the authenticating, an indication of the identity to an information source of the second domain to instruct the information source of the second domain to send to the relying entity of the first domain the entity-specific information associated with the subject entity based on the indication of the identity.
