Abstract—Privacy concerns are one of the most important issues in today‘s technology-based setting. Previous studies show that privacy concerns negatively influenced the individual’s behavioral intention toward a particular Web-based service or technology. However, researchers have not explored the role of privacy concerns in identity management systems (IdMS) adoption. Previous identity management studies addressed privacy issues from the technical perspective but theoretical, social and regulatory dimensions have not been well addressed in the literature. This study identifies multi-dimensional privacy concerns of the IdMS and aims to understand and examine their effect toward users behavioral intentions to adopt IdMS. The conclusion of this paper outlines the implications and further directions for this study.

Index Terms—Behavioral intention, identity management systems, identity information, privacy concerns.
