Trust in swiss digital identity - Internship

In the last years, Switzerland tried to build an electronic ID (e-ID) infrastructure and the politicians proposed new laws in order to create a new digital electronic ID to identify and authenticate a person.  This year, the swiss people, through a referendum, will decide who will be in charge and how the digital identity concept will be put in place in Switzerland.

ELCA is one of the major swiss IT key players that has actively participated in the working groups that debated on the concept of swiss electronic identity. ELCA has also developed trustID, a full stack multi-factor authentication solution and Identity Provider (IdP).

This internship challenges the student to analyze the social aspects of an e-ID. What are the criteria to choose & use an e-ID? How can trust in digitalization be build? What is the social feeling when comparing the numerous social identities (accounts) we use nowadays in order to access to different services versus a single e-ID?
