  Personal identification number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A personal identification number (PIN) is a numeric value (sometimes expressed as text using the standard telephone dial mapping) that is used in certain systems to gain access, and authenticate.
PINs are (ideally) only known by the person whose PIN it is, and are sufficiently hard to guess.
The PIN should be such that a person or computer cannot guess it in sufficient time by using a guess and check method, where it guesses the PIN, and checks for correctness by testing it on the system that the person is attempting to gain access to.

 Roger Clarke's Human Id in Info. Systems
Identification is applicable to data stored in structured, tangible and manageable form, as in corporate databases and documentary filing schemes; but also to data stored in less formal ways, as in private notes; and in incorporeal form, as in ballads and human memory.
In effect, that person has multiple identities that correspond with particular roles he, she or it plays, and it is not possible to correlate the identities without the person's active cooperation.
Given that identification schemes are costly, and generally of only moderate integrity, organisations in both the public and private sectors need to familiarise themselves with anonymous and pseudonymous transaction techniques, and assess their applicability to their operations.
