Abstract. There are several areas of identity management that require standardization in order for them to work effectively. This paper pro-poses three standardization areas: the development of fine-grained pri-vacy standards, the negotiation standards, and the backward privacy standards. Backward privacy refers to the problems that arise due to the massive amount of the already revealed personal information in the past which might reduce, or render useless, the effectiveness of the use of the privacy enhancing identity management system in the future. The main characteristics that each standard should have are also laid out in this paper. 1
