What is LoA

Handbook of Research on Current Trends in Cybersecurity and Educational Technology
Standards of assurance. It is a claim to a certain identity made during authentication that can be trusted to represent the claimant’s “real” identity with a given level of (identification) confidence. Higher degrees of assurance decrease the possibility of identity theft and boost transaction security. Still, they can also be more expensive and inconvenient for identity holders and other parties that rely on them, which might result in exclusion. Therefore, practitioners must consider the various LoA needs of different use cases. For instance, while some transactions—like making a medical appointment online—carry less risk than others, biometric-based verification is probably not acceptable for usage across all use cases.

Abstract
In this chapter, the authors discuss the relationship between cybersecurity and public health. They consider that open wellbeing logic may offer assistance. They explore the standardizing legitimization for—and moral limitations on—government engagement on the internet, as well as how to put these higher standards into reality through open wellbeing arrangement and education. In this open cyberhealth worldview, non-malicious dangers to organize vigor and flexibility are treated genuinely, as is the effect of arranged dangers and activities on wellbeing and health.
