A Mobile Identity Management System to Enhance the Brazilian Electronic Government

Abstract

One of the strategies used by governments to enhance eGovernment Programs (eGov) is to define an Electronic Identity Management (IdM) system.  Brazil has not yet defined a National Strategy for Identity Management. This work aims to propose a Mobile Identity Management (Mobile eID) System aligned with the Brazilian eGov Program, through a solution that prioritizes security, privacy and usability. As a proof of concept, a prototype was developed in software, which was evaluated through functional test cases and a user satisfaction survey. The results show that it is possible to guarantee the security, privacy and the usability of the Mobile eID through the use of FIDO UAF, TEE and SAML standards.
