Digital ID refers to a collection of recent approaches to solving the trust problem between 2 entities ( 2 persons, computing devices or services).
Trust Problem
Fundamentally, trust is brokered through a 3rd party, in one form or another. Young children often are introduced to each other by a chain of trust of 3rd party entities which is one or more adults present.
Identification
To drive a car, a driver's licence (A physical object provided by a trusted 3rd party bearing that vouches for the person present) is required to be present on the person.
E-Commerce
Ecommerce evolved to need trust established at multiple levels of protocol, from TLS certificates to Multi-factor authentication (more needed on MFA etc).
(more needed on history, developments, who are the primary sources and more.).
