From ITUwiki

Introduction

In conjunction with IdM use and offerings, businesses typically assess and allocate their risk for IdM related failures, omissions, or misconduct by their employees, suppliers, partners, and customers; and deal with the risk in the context of laws concerning negligence and torts (i.e., a civil wrong). Such civil wrongs include personal injury, medical malpractice (in IdM eHealth), product liability, intellectual property infringements, defamation, intentional acts against persons, property, or other business, or invasion of privacy. Negligence is significant factor and body of law in dealing with tortious conduct that attempts to establish standards of reasonable care and allocation of risk when loss, injury, or damage occurs.
