!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([IAL]) is described in [NIST.SP.800-63A] as a category that conveys the degree of confidence ([Assurance]) that the applicant’s claimed [identity|Identification] is their real identity. (This is the definition of [Authentication])
[{$pagename}] is a [Level Of Assurance] measurement [Identity Proofing]
[{$pagename}] describes the common pattern in which a subject, referred to as an applicant During the [Credential Enrollment], which undergoes an [Identity Proofing] and enrollment process in which the [evidence] and [Identity Attributes] are collected, uniquely resolved to a single identity within a given population or [context], then validated and verified. A [Credential Service Provider] may then bind these [attributes] to an [authenticator] at a specified [{$pagename}] as described in [NIST.SP.800-63B].

||IAL||Requirement
|[IAL1]|The [Credential Service Provider] ([CSP]) [SHALL NOT] proof applicants. Applicants [MAY] self-assert zero or more attributes to the [Credential Service Provider]. See [NIST.SP.800-63A] Section 4.3
|[IAL2]|allows for remote or in-person [Identity Proofing] and supports a wide range of acceptable [Identity Proofing] techniques in order to increase user adoption, decrease false negatives (legitimate applicants that cannot successfully complete [Identity Proofing]), and detect to the best extent possible the presentation of fraudulent identities by a malicious applicant. A CSP [MAY] exceed these requirements. See [NIST.SP.800-63A] Section 4.4
|[IAL3]| adds additional rigor to the steps required at [IAL2], to include providing further evidence of superior strength, and is subjected to additional and specific processes, including the use of [biometric data], to further protect the identity and [Relying Party] from [impersonation], fraud, or other significantly harmful damages. In addition, [Identity Proofing] at [IAL3] is performed in-person. See [NIST.SP.800-63A] Section 4.5 for more details. A [CSP] [MAY] exceed these requirements.
