Abstract
A decentralized biometric identity authentication method utilizes biometrics captured on a mobile device to perform identity authentication against data that was registered as part of an identity proofing process and is thus trusted. The user registers his or her biometric using the user's mobile device and associates it with the user's electronic identity as part of a supervised identity proofing process, thus forming a proofed identity, and registers the proofed identity with a federated identity system. To later access the resources of the federated identity system, the user logs in with his or her biometrics. The methods described herein are useful, for example, in the travel, healthcare, and financial services fields.
