Method for querying and obtaining a level of user recognition of statements concerning said user in a communications network, in which the method includes the following steps: a) At least one first node of the network, called the controller, configures and stores at least one rule associated to each statement, determining said rule, on behalf of the user, the level of user recognition of the statement associated to said rule; b) a node of the network, called the verifier, different from the controller and belonging to a different administrative domain from the controller's, retrieves a statement c) upon retrieving the statement, the verifier accesses the contents of the statement and selects, based at least on the information included in the statement, the user whose level of recognition the verifier wants to determine, said statement concerning the user; d) upon selecting the user, the verifier selects depending, at least, on the user's identity, the end point of the controller managing the levels of user recognition on behalf of said user; e) the verifier transmits, through a communications channel of the communications network, a first message to the controller which includes at least said statement or information that allows said statement to be identified, as well as information that allows said user to be identified; f) upon receipt of the first message, the controller chooses, from among the rules previously configured and stored at the controller, at least one rule to apply in order to determine, on behalf of said user, the level of user recognition of said statement; g) the controller determines on behalf of said user a level of user recognition of said statement by applying at least said one rule associated to that statement, as chosen in the previous step; h) the controller transmits a second message to the verifier which includes or identifies the level of user recognition of said statement. Wherein the controller can modify, at least a rule previously configured to determine the level of user recognition of a statement associated to said rule, at any moment before or after applying said rule and before or after transmitting the second message from the controller to the verifier, in such a way that modifying the rule results in the modification of the level of user recognition of the statement to which the rule is associated and wherein the statements for which the controller determines a level of user recognition, are stored or issued by entities deployed on different network nodes or belonging to different administrative domains which have no underlying trust relationships set up with either the controller or the verifier. a) At least one first node of the network, called the controller, configures and stores at least one rule associated to each statement, determining said rule, on behalf of the user, the level of user recognition of the statement associated to said rule; b) a node of the network, called the verifier, different from the controller and belonging to a different administrative domain from the controller's, retrieves a statement c) upon retrieving the statement, the verifier accesses the contents of the statement and selects, based at least on the information included in the statement, the user whose level of recognition the verifier wants to determine, said statement concerning the user; d) upon selecting the user, the verifier selects depending, at least, on the user's identity, the end point of the controller managing the levels of user recognition on behalf of said user; e) the verifier transmits, through a communications channel of the communications network, a first message to the controller which includes at least said statement or information that allows said statement to be identified, as well as information that allows said user to be identified; f) upon receipt of the first message, the controller chooses, from among the rules previously configured and stored at the controller, at least one rule to apply in order to determine, on behalf of said user, the level of user recognition of said statement; g) the controller determines on behalf of said user a level of user recognition of said statement by applying at least said one rule associated to that statement, as chosen in the previous step; h) the controller transmits a second message to the verifier which includes or identifies the level of user recognition of said statement.
