Abstract

Amongst the several problems with the Brazilian e-government services (e-Gov), many of them are related to the fact that Brazil does not have a National Strategy for Digital Identity Management (IdM). To design a  national strategy, it is crucial to analyze the solutions adopted in other countries and take into account Brazilian characteristics, such as its area, population, digital inclusion index, socio-political and economic profile, the current national identity registration system and the fraud rate. In this context, this paper aims to propose a national strategy for IdM for the Brazilian e-Gov program. This strategy was built upon by a literature review of the experiences of European countries and, mainly, the peculiarities inherent to Brazil.
