Abstract
This paper defines an approach to managing digital identity requiring special-purpose technology on the browser client. We propose a mechanism using standards, such as HTTP(S) extended with WebID Protocol and Semantic Web ontologies and vocabularies. We present a scalable method that allows user authentication and authorization to work across multiple web-sites, enterprises, devices, and browsers in a uniform and easy-to-use manner.
