Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes: receiving a request for associating a first index of privileges and permissions with an identity token, the first index specifically encoding the privileges and permissions of a first subscriber in accessing transactional data of the requester, the request including the identity token that identifies a person and has been issued to the requester by a trusted entity through a vetting process; in response to determining that the identity token is valid and verifying that the requester is the person identified by the identity token, associating the first index of privileges and permissions of the first subscriber with the identity token; and providing the identity token associated with the first index of privileges and permissions of the first subscriber, the identity token enabling the first subscriber to access transactional data of the requester in accordance with the first index of privileges and permissions.
