Periodic Reporting for period 1 - INCOGNITO (IdeNtity verifiCatiOn with privacy-preservinG credeNtIals for anonymous access To Online services)
Période du rapport: 2019-01-01 au 2020-12-31
1.Design and implement an infrastructure that supports qualified anonymity (QA) by leveraging state of the art cryptographic credentials schemes as well as Federated Login solutions.
This objective is closely linked to WP3, which aims on achieving QA for the INCOGNITO platform. Task 3.1 has been completed successfully, while Tasks 3.2 and 3.3 are in progress.
2.Design and implement an Identity Acquisition and Management platform that will allow the user to quickly and securely acquire identity attributes from Physical ID documents and Online Identities.
This objective is closely linked to WP4, which focuses on the Identity Acquisition and Management functionalities for the INCOGNITO platform. Task 4.1 has been completed successfully, while Tasks 4.2 and 4.3 are in progress.
3.Design and implement an advanced UI/UX AI-based assistant that will guide and inform the user about aspects of his identity management as well as possible actions to take.
This objective is closely linked to WP5, which focuses on the design and implementation of a UI/UX AI-based assistant for the INCOGNITO platform. Task 5.1 has been completed successfully, while Tasks 5.2 and 5.3 are in progress.
4.Evaluate the results of the project through two pilot activities.
This objective is closely linked to WP7, which has not commenced yet. Thus, there is no progress for this Objective yet.
As a result of the described work that has been performed, personal data that will be handled by the INCOGNITO platform will be secure and all the corresponding processes will fall in line with the European and national laws and legislation and compliance is ensured. Moreover, the foundation upon which the INCOGNITO platform will be built has been laid by defining the business and technical requirements that need to be met in order to successfully implement a platform that aligns with our goals of verifying identity attributes while preserving the user’s privacy and anonymity when accessing online services at the same time.
Progress until M24:

WP4: Task 4.1 has been completed, while Tasks 4.2 and 4.3 are still in progress. Completion: 39.27%
WP5: Task 5.1 has been completed, while Tasks 5.2 and 5.3 are still in progress. Completion: 32.4%
WP6: All Tasks are in progress. Completion: 2.16%
WP7: Has not commenced. Completion: 0%
WP8: All Tasks are in progress. Completion: 30%
Milestone no.2 ""Complete specifications"" has been fully achieved, through the completion of Tasks 3.1 4.1 and 5.1."
The completed steps taken towards this direction, include:
- the completion of the reference architecture for the INCOGNITO platform,
- the design and implementation of the qualified anonymous framework and integration with device-centric authentication solutions such as FIDO (Fast IDentity Online),
- the full identity acquisition through a web and mobile application that will support acquisition from multiple soft proofs of identities and online accounts,
- the first stage of the design and components prototyping of the machine learning pipeline that will be the pillar of the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based assistant.
