[Work done from 9th June to 22nd June 2008]
Passed two weeks were very important period for our group. Because we identified lots of important area of our project and what are the important hardware devices for our project. Within that period we had our seconds documented meeting and discussed lot of thing regard our project. In that documented discussion we discussed about:
- how we planning to do the offline authentication of the digital Identity
- privacy issues of the digital identity and Implement the privacy-enhancing tools in the eID infrastructure to disassociate different sectors where the user is active.
- include Biometrics data such as photo,fingerprint,hands scan. eye pattern, ear pattern, voice recognition and signature.
- a electronic identity, which shouldn’t have an expiry. The eID of that particular person remains forever. but If the physical ID meet the expiry time, the owner should be able to renew that.
Also the Tec-talk discussion based on “Application of PKI for Enterprise Information Security” by Mr.Roshan Chandrasiri (Epic Lanka). After that presentation we got better understanding about the digital authentication and the what are the hardware requirement for the project.
Also still we have doubt about the using USB eToken or Smart card (which have USB interface) as authentication token of the eID system. So we are still keep searching about the those technologies in internet. How ever within next two weeks we are going to finalize which one is going to be used in our system.
And also we need to understand the web services and the Architecture of the web services with the cryptography world.
