An identity provider provides an end user with a way to create and manage their identity that will enable them to present identity information to an organisation. This is often referred to as a Digital Identity. Some Identity Providers specialise in allowing users to collect trusted evidence about themselves and present this to organisations to allow the organisation to make a decision as to whether to trust the user. Some identity providers will go further and formulate a trust decision about the user which they will then share with the organisations as an assured identity.
