Azonositóvá

Azonositóvá is a term used in Hungarian to describe the process of transforming an entity’s data into a unique identifier within a system. It characterizes the transition from descriptive information to a representation that can serve as a stable reference for authentication, authorization, and data management. The concept is descriptive rather than tied to a single standardized method, and its precise meaning can vary by context.

Etymologically, the word combines azonositó (identifier) with the suffix -vá, which denotes becoming or turning into. In technical usage, azonositóvá refers to making something into an identifier that can be used as a primary key, a handle for a user or device, or a token in a security or provisioning workflow.

In information technology practice, the process may involve generating a new identifier (for example, a UUID), deriving one through deterministic hashing of stable attributes, or applying tokenization to replace sensitive data with a non-reversible reference. It can also relate to pseudonymization, where a reversible or non-reversible identifier is used to protect privacy while preserving the ability to link records.

Security and privacy considerations are central to the concept. A robust azonositóvá process aims for uniqueness, immutability, and resistance to collision, while balancing the need to prevent re-identification of individuals or devices. Lifecycle management, access controls, and auditing are important components.

Because azonositóvá is not a formal standardized term, its exact interpretation depends on the documentation or system in question. In practice, it describes a fundamental step in identity management: turning data into a reliable, system-wide identifier.
