Characteristics of digital identity

 Digital identity has a series of characteristics that have been identified to better define its concept and understand its: 

  • Social: It is created by browsing social networks based on the identity of another person without even verifying that that identity is real.

  • Subjective: depends on how other users perceive this person through the information they create themselves.

  • Valuable: On different occasions companies investigate the information available from a person on social networks to make decisions regarding hiring. 

  • Indirect: This does not allow us to know the person directly, but only the information about him published on the Internet.

  • Mixed: because it is built through the contributions of the same person, but also those other people without their consent. 

  • Reality: our digital information can produce positive and negative effects on our real lives. 

  • Contextual: it is important to maintain separate identities depending on the context, as the disclosure of information in the wrong context can harm our digital identity. 

  • Dynamic: It is always in constant change or modification.
