Abstract
In general, one innovative aspect of the subject matter described in this specification may be embodied in methods that may include validating user data pages extracted from a digital identification in circumstances where a user device that includes the digital identification is either unavailable or presently lacks network connectivity. For instance, an authorized device may be used to extract user data pages from the digital identification by either exchanging communications with the user device using a proximity-based data exchange protocol, or by using a physical identification card to identify the digital identification on a user record. The user data pages may then be validated by comparing checksums associated with user data pages against the checksums within the user record, and decrypting the user data pages using a decryption key that is variably designated by a security status assigned to the digital identification.
