澳大利亚计划“信任交换”ID系统以提高身份验证效率

使用二维码和点击支付方式，ID 系统将安全地传输来自 MyGov 帐户的信息

The Australian government is planning to introduce a new digital ID system to improve the efficiency of identity verification for various services, including checking into hotels and submitting job applications.

澳大利亚政府正计划推出新的数字身份系统，以提高各种服务的身份验证效率，包括入住酒店和提交工作申请。

The system will use QR codes and tap-to-pay methods to securely transmit information from MyGov accounts, according to a report by the ABC.

据美国广播公司报道，该系统将使用二维码和点击支付方式安全地传输来自 MyGov 账户的信息。

Set to launch as a pilot next year, the optional system will allow users to seamlessly check into hotels and apply for jobs without having to worry about their data being leaked.

该可选系统将于明年试点推出，用户可以无缝入住酒店并申请工作，而不必担心自己的数据被泄露。

For instance, under the proposed "TEx" system, a person could check into a hotel by simply scanning a QR code, which would then safely transmit their passport details via a unified database.

例如，在拟议的“TEx”系统下，一个人只需扫描二维码即可入住酒店，然后二维码将通过统一数据库安全地传输其护照详细信息。

Similarly, a QR code at a pub could verify a person's age without revealing the actual details.

同样，酒吧的二维码可以验证一个人的年龄，而无需透露实际细节。

In other cases, users will receive a digital token — also known as a "digital thumbs up" — that confirms their credentials while keeping their sensitive data private.

在其他情况下，用户将收到一个数字令牌（也称为“数字点赞”），该令牌确认他们的凭据，同时保持敏感数据的私密性。

"It can all be done via the digital wallet on your phone – the TEx technology does the rest," Minister for Government Services Bill Shorten said at the National Press Club on Tuesday, according to The Conversation. "It can all be done via the digital wallet on your phone – the TEx technology does the rest."

据 The Conversation 报道，政府服务部长 Bill Shorten 周二在国家新闻俱乐部表示：“这一切都可以通过手机上的数字钱包来完成，剩下的事情都由 TEx 技术完成。” “这一切都可以通过手机上的数字钱包来完成——TEx 技术会完成剩下的工作。”

"With TEx, instead of handing over those documents and having them taken to the back office to be photocopied, you will scan a QR code on the front desk – or use technology similar to tap-to-pay machine – which digitally shakes hands with your MyGov wallet," he added.

“使用 TEx，您无需将这些文件交给后台进行复印，而是在前台扫描二维码，或者使用类似于触碰支付机的技术，以数字方式与客户握手。你的 MyGov 钱包，”他补充道。

"You choose which information to share from your digital wallet and consent to its use. You will have a record in your MyGov wallet of what you shared and with whom you shared it," he said

“你可以从你的数字钱包中选择要分享的信息并同意其使用。你的 MyGov 钱包中将记录你分享的内容以及与谁分享的信息，”他说

"It could be date of birth, address, citizenship or visa status, or qualifications, occupational licences or working with children check. You control what details are exchanged."

“它可以是出生日期、地址、公民身份或签证状态，或者资格、职业许可证或儿童工作检查。您可以控制交换哪些详细信息。”

However, cybersecurity experts have expressed concerns that centralizing such a large amount of sensitive information could make it a "honey pot" for cybercriminals.

然而，网络安全专家担心，集中如此大量的敏感信息可能会成为网络犯罪分子的“蜜罐”。

The system could also lead to the government collecting more information than is necessary, according to the report.

报告称，该系统还可能导致政府收集不必要的信息。

"The more data you collect, the more risk you're introducing into the system. It's a risky project," Richard Buckland, a cybersecurity professor at the University of New South Wales, told The Conversation.

新南威尔士大学网络安全教授理查德·巴克兰（Richard Buckland）告诉《对话》：“收集的数据越多，给系统带来的风险就越大。这是一个有风险的项目。”

"Once we collect that data, sure, if we've got a system that protects it, that's great, but I've never seen a perfect system."

“一旦我们收集了这些数据，当然，如果我们有一个保护它的系统，那就太好了，但我从未见过完美的系统。”

Nevertheless, the government has stated that the information will not be stored in a single database, as it is aiming to create a decentralized model, according to the ABC.

尽管如此，据美国广播公司报道，政府已表示这些信息不会存储在单一数据库中，因为它的目标是创建一个分散的模型。
