Abstract

Techniques are provided for user identity verification using dynamic identification policies. One method comprises obtaining, by an identity management server, a validation request to evaluate an identity of a user, wherein the validation request is processed by the identity management server in connection with an access request of the user to access a protected resource provided by a service provider that is distinct from the identity management server. The validation request may comprise an identification policy, generated by the service provider in response to receiving the access request, that specifies authentication consensus constraints that apply to the access request. The identity management server can provide an authentication request to verifier devices in a verifier pool, using the authentication consensus constraints, to evaluate the identity of the user; and can provide an identity validation result based on the evaluation of the identity of the user by the verifier devices using the authentication consensus constraints.
