6  Annexes: An Overview of Standards for Representing 

Person’s Information 

 

This Annexe provides some brief descriptions of some of the identity schema standards for 

representing user information in different domains. They are aimed at giving the reader some 

global overview on the categories of attributes manipulated in the different standards, without 

this having reader to go into the full specifications. The full specifications, to which this 

document provides references, should be used in the case the reader would like to engage into 

elaborated work. 

 

6.1 Directories and Business Cards (LDAP, vCards, Active 

Directory, Liberty Alliance schemas, PKCS, etc.) 

 

Directory services provide the means to manage the identities and relationships that make up 

network environments. Directory services can for instance be used to manage the email 

addresses, but also to manage the permission and the access to resources. The objects that are 

stored in directories can include people, but also organisational structures and resources. 

6.1.1 LDAP schema 

6.1.1.1

 

Presentation 

The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a protocol for accessing directory 

services, which can be seen as specialised databases, e.g. over the internet. It replaces its 

predecessor, the Directory Access Protocol (DAP), which has not become widely accepted 

due to its complexity. Version v3 of the LDAP is specified in RFC3377. A main feature of the 

LDAP is its focus on security aspects, it provides AAA (authentication, authorisation and 

accounting) functionality to secure the information within directory services by supporting 

encryption between the client and the directory server, and by providing access control lists 

(ACLs) defining who may access specific directory entries or parts thereof. 

An LDAP directory contains entries in a hierarchical structure. A directory entry may refer to 

any kind of entity, object, or resource. Each entry is identified by a distinguished name (dn), 

and consists of one or more attributes, i.e. type-value pairs. A directory schema specifies a set 

of rules defining what may be stored in a directory, the valid attribute types etc. 

Table 1 shows an example of a LDAP directory entry representing a person. The attribute 

types used in the example are commonly used and therefore given as short keyword names. 

The Distinguished Name of the entry, containing in this case the 

person’s Common Name (cn), Organisation (o) and Country (c)  

cn=Richard Cissee,  

o=DAI-Labor,  

c=Germany 

Email address attribute. 

mail=[e-mail] 

LocalityName attribute, typically the city. 

l=Berlin
