What is DigitalPersona?

What is DigitalPersona?
The Digitalpersona is a part of the individual identity that has been extended into the online sphere to which corresponds a digital unconscious structuring a digitally divided self. It has personal, social, institutional, legal, scientific and technological aspects that have to be reconsidered to allow for new ways of understanding and managing identity.
However, the fragmentation of scientific analysis fails to explain what happens to the digital personae in an interdisciplinary way. This is reflected by the current lack of comprehensive framework, the tendency to develop fragmentary management tools and gaps in legal frameworks.

Key Usages

  • Passwordless Login: Enables users to log into Windows, VPNs, and cloud apps using biometrics (fingerprint/face) or mobile devices, eliminating passwords.
  • Shared Workstation Security: Securely manages logins on shared PCs and kiosks, ensuring each user authenticates uniquely and preventing shared password issues.
  • Access to Corporate Resources: Provides secure access to sensitive internal networks, virtual desktops (Citrix), and cloud services.
  • Transaction Authentication: Confirms user identity for sensitive digital transactions.
  • Compliance: Helps meet regulatory requirements (like HIPAA) by providing audit trails and strong authentication.
In this context society, experts, institutions and groups are still in a fragile unconscious, or pre-conscious phase, regarding the opportunities and problems associated with the management of digital persona.
This on-going research aims at contributing to define the digital persona and to develop models and typologies of digital personhood that are still being developed.
