References and Source Standards

This page identifies the principal sources used to prepare the public UbID documentation. It does not reproduce every deployment-specific legal, contractual, security, or implementation source.

UbID institutional research cut-off: 30 July 2026
Selected official-source recheck for Phase 3G: 6 August 2026

Laws, regulations, standards, regulator guidance, and certification schemes change. Always verify the current official publication and effective date before relying on a reference.

Source classes​

  • Normative standard — defines technical requirements or protocol behavior.
  • Official law or regulation — authoritative legal text published by the responsible body.
  • Authority guidance — official interpretation or implementation guidance; its legal effect depends on the jurisdiction.
  • Controlled UbID source — approved institutional architecture, governance, or terminology baseline.
  • Explanatory material — useful context that is not normative or legally authoritative.

Controlled UbID sources​

  • UbID Trust Fabric — Architecture Book, Enterprise Edition, version 2.0, July 2026.
  • Identity in the Digital Society: The UbID Approach, 30 July 2026.
  • Identity in the Digital Society: The UbID Approach — Global Privacy and Regulatory Alignment, version 3.1, 30 July 2026.
  • Diccionario Técnico Institucional de Estándares, Criptografía e Interoperabilidad — UbID Trust Fabric, version 1.0, July 2026.

These controlled sources distinguish current implementation evidence, durable reference architecture, transitions, targets, and future concepts. A source description is not automatically a public availability commitment.

Digital identity and credential standards​

An implementation must declare the exact version and profile it supports, especially where a credential profile or extension remains under active development.

Cryptography and security​

Public documentation uses these sources to explain architecture and governance. It does not publish production key configuration, trust measurements, recovery parameters, or privileged procedures.

Use of regulatory sources​

A public regulatory page should:

  1. cite the current official source;
  2. identify the publication or effective date where material;
  3. distinguish legal text from guidance;
  4. state the UbID contribution separately from residual institutional obligations;
  5. avoid asserting certification, registration, or legal recognition without current evidence;
  6. maintain a research cut-off and next review trigger;
  7. route unresolved legal questions to qualified local review.
