eID (electronic ID)

An electronic ID (eID) is a digital version of a traditional identification document, like a passport or driver's license. It allows individuals to verify their identity online securely and conveniently. eIDs can be used for various purposes, such as accessing government services, signing documents, or logging into online accounts. They often use encryption and secure techniques to protect personal information, ensuring that only authorized users can access their data. eIDs enhance the online experience by simplifying transactions while improving security and reducing the risk of identity theft.
