A Deeper Look at Information Cards
Why Would an RP Accept a Card the User Created?
At ?¬?rst glance, it seems strange that an RP would accept a card, or digital identity,
that a user created for his own use. Isn??™t it better to have a trusted IP manage
the digital identity?
It really depends on what that identity is being used for. If the claim values need
to be certi?¬?ed by a third party, such as when doing age veri?¬?cation, the card
should come from a trusted third party. However, if the card is being used to log
the user on to a site and to prove on repeat visits that it is the same user, the
Personal Card ?¬?ts the bill. The cryptographic keys generated for each Personal
Card provide strong assurance that the same card is being used. The Personal
Card can also be used in cases where the site is willing to trust the user to ?¬?ll in

Note that the claims supported by Personal Cards are not very
sensitive; that is, while the information describes the person, it
does not expose his private data, such as credit card numbers,
account numbers, Social Security Number, and passwords.
