Kantara Initiative NSTIC Pilots in Motion Day Grows ID Market Harmonization
by Joni Brennan 05 Feb '14

05 Feb '14

*Five leading NSTIC Pilots came together on January 30th to share their lessons learned, use cases, and innovations under the Kantara Initiative banners of openness, collaboration, and harmonization.* The NSTIC Pilots are an exciting evolving space within Identity Management activities today. While these activities have a US centric focus, due to their activities as part of the US NSTIC National Program approach, lessons learned and innovations brought by the pilots have far reaching impact and applicability. Each Pilot that presented is part of their involvement in the Kantara Initiative community. Kantara Initiative's role for the day was in alignment with our mission around harmonization of innovations across sectors and borders. Philippe de Raet of Experian Public Sector, a Kantara Initiative Board Member, opened the day and set the tone of market growth through harmonization and collaboration of leaders in the space. The 40 diverse industry leaders in attendance enjoyed a welcome from NSTIC NPO Senior Executive Advisor, Jeremy Grant, who reinforced the strategic importance of the Pilots and the benefits they are already bringing to industry. Aligned with Kantara Initiative's international mandate, the group benefited from a special virtual update from the Federal Government of Canada, a Kantara Initiative Board Member. This event provided a special opportunity for harmonization giving each pilot a full hour to present their findings, successes, and to answer questions from attendees.

Kantara Initiative thanked NIST US Federal Department of Commerce for providing the space and special thanks to the Internet Society, a Kantara Board Member, who has been a leader enabling Kantara Initiative's mission of open harmonization of trust and identity initiatives. *We hope you will join us for similar events to come in the Kantara Initiative 2014 industry harmonization series!* Best Regards, Joni Brennan Kantara Initiative | Executive Director voice:+1 732-226-4223 email: joni @ kantarainitiative.org Building Trusted Identity Ecosystems - It takes a village!

Best Practices for IDAM Systems Integration
by Stephen Wilson 02 Jan '14

02 Jan '14

Dear IDAM colleagues, Happy new year! And apologies for any cross-posting. I am helping a government policy body work out the potential division of labor between agencies and systems integrators when deploying federated identity services. A classic case is an agency wishing to use a third party IdP (like a commercial service, or another government agency IdP); assuming such an agency does not have a core team of IDAM experts and engineers sitting on the bench (!), the agency needs to access varying amounts of policy advice, IDAM know-how, software modules, template user documents, training, integration resources and testers. A few years ago, as FIPS-201/PIV was taking off, there was an emerging ecosystem of big SIs (HP, IBM, CSC etc IIRC) standing by to help get US govt agencies on board. This experience would be instructive. I think the SIs were getting close to a cafeteria model where expert IDAM implementation assistance could be tailored to each agencies' capabilities. More recently, we obviously have a number of NSTIC pilots ramping up. Maybe there has been some lessons already in those environments of how to do systems integration. My question is, does anyone know of best practices or lessons learned for IDAM systems integration? Thanks in advance for any public resources. Cheers, Steve.

23 Dec '13

[image: Inline image 3] Happy Holidays, Joyeuses Fêtes, Felices Fiestas, Trevlig Helg, 幸せな休日, Forhe Feiertage, and Prettige feestdagen! As 2013 comes to a close, I wanted to take a moment to thank each of you for your hard work and commitment to the Identity Management industries and specifically to Kantara Initiative. You have supported some amazing accomplishments this year! The size of the Kantara Initiative Board of Trustees has more than doubled in the last 10 months - a very clear indicator of the trust in Kantara Initiative as a transformative, innovative, and influential organization. Our Membership has grown over the last year. We've welcomed new organizations and enjoy a continued relationship with many long time Members. You have evolved the Identity Assurance Framework to build a path toward service component market recognition. While there's more work to do, the Identity Assurance work has helped to bridge and harmonize governments, commercial, and citizen services. We have doubled the number of Approved CSPs. You have supported relationships with many liaisons and across a number of NSTIC pilots. Identity Relationship Management and the many innovations of the work groups have been well recognized this past year. The Leadership Council has engaged with all of the WGs to ensure each charter is clear and captivating. These are just some examples of what makes Kantara Initiative a unique community of international peers doing really big things in identity. We wish everyone a happy and safe holiday and look forward to all we'll accomplish in 2014!

by Joni Brennan 18 Dec '13

18 Dec '13

Of possible interest... 2014 Cybersecurity Forum to Focus on Trusted Computing, Security Automation and Information Sharing For Immediate Release: December 17, 2013 * <http://www.nist.gov/public_affairs/disclaimer.cfm> *Contact:* Evelyn Brown <evelyn.brown(a)nist.gov> 301-975-5661 The 2014 Cybersecurity Innovation Forum, to be held January 28-30, 2014, at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, Md., will focus on the existing threat landscape and provide presentations and keynotes on current and emerging practices, technologies and standards to protect the nation’s infrastructure, citizens and economic interests from cyberattack. The goal of the forum—sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence—is to identify a roadmap for active cyber defense through integrating trusted computing, information sharing and security automation technologies. Meeting organizers are bringing together expertise from the Trusted Computing and Security Automation conferences and discussions on information sharing into a single event. Merging several cybersecurity conferences takes advantage of the synergy of a broader audience of public- and private-sector cybersecurity employees. Keynote speakers include Goldman Sachs Managing Director and Chief Information Risk Officer Phil Venables, Special Assistant to the President and Cybersecurity Coordinator Michael Daniels, and Chief Information Security Officer for the County of Los Angeles Robert Pittman. Other keynotes will cover industry views of the security threat, the Presidential Policy Directive on Critical Infrastructure Security and Resilience (PPD 21), impacts of PPD 21 and Executive Order 13636 on improving the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure, and the U.S. government’s collaboration with industry to secure our nation’s cybersecurity. The forum offers four tracks—Trusted Computing, Security Automation, Information Sharing, and Research—where attendees will hear from government and industry experts and have opportunities for collaboration and networking. The Department of Homeland Security, the National Security Agency and NIST are organizing the event. More information about the event and how to register can be found at www.nist.gov/itl/csd/2014-cybersecurity-innovation-forum.cfm.

by Joni Brennan 29 Oct '13

29 Oct '13

Hot on the heals of returning from SCA, UserCentric ID Live, IDESG, and IIW17, we now return to our virtual offices with the exciting fall season of Identity Management underway. Next up will be our webinar hosted by BrightTalk taking place on Wednesday Oct 30 at 8am PT. We'll be discussing the evolution of IdM/IAM to IRM. That's Identity Relationship Management<http://kantarainitiative.org/irmpillars/>. Identity Relationship Management is about transforming the approach and language of IdM/IAM in to the language of business. It's about making IdM/IAM relevant to CIOs, Business Developers, Management and Users. IRM speaks the language of business, scalability, adaptability, and transformation. If you've not already read our blog about the IRM pillars please do so now <http://kantarainitiative.org/irmpillars/> and sign-on<http://kantarainitiative.org/irm/> to show your support of the pillars. IRM has been influenced by many great works of recent and from the past. It's key founding signatories include experts from Salesforce.com, Experian, ForgeRock and Kantara Initiative. If you'd like to hear more about the pillars please join our webinar - https://www.brighttalk.com/r/gZs <https://t.co/oPzjAUwsGt> We look forward to answering your questions about IRM and enabling the Trust layer of Identity Ecosystems! - Joni Brennan Executive Director, Kantara Initiative
