  • Publication number: 20090271856
    Abstract: A system and method for utilizing restricted user information cards is provided. An identity provider issues a restricted use information card responsive to a relying party's restricted use policy. The identity provider can issue security tokens associated with the restricted use information card that include a unique-id claim. A broker can act as an intermediary between a user and the relying party to protect the user's personal information but still uniquely identity the user to the relying party. The relying party, the identity provider, or the broker can be responsible for enforcing the restricted use policy.
