Adaptation of information technologies to the country’s administration opens up new opportunities for residents’ cooperation with the governmental institutions, for more transparent administration and clearer decision-making process. It also presents new possibilities for a citizen to communicate and work with public administration institutions on convenient time, place and ways. When some services were moved to electronic space, an important question was raised: how to recognise people before any information was presented to them? Information supplier has to make sure he was transferring requested information to the person who had placed the request. Also, the person, who placed the request, has to identify himself or to prove his identity. The identification system meeting the requirements of the European Union was also planned to be created while drafting the concept of e-government. This system should infallibly identify a person and communicate with public administration institution with the help of information technologies. The aim of the paper – is to evaluate possible and promising person identification ways; to analyse the aspects of their reliability, safety and interaction; and to supply recommendations of anticipatory measures.
