Hey Guys,
Hope this finds you all well...
Have you heard about this "Trusted Identities" program? FYI http://www.darkreading.com/authentication/167901072/security/privacy/2290004...
Since I had not seen anyone comment or raise this in our group, I wanted to reach out and get the collective opinion of this...
This sounds very much like what we were up to in the Liberty Alliance Program, now Kantara...
I am not really sure what/why the US Govt is trying to do here given that the industry is already working to do this, and have been for quite a while. Are they going to "choose" one system and mandate it within its physical borders? Is this a mess waiting to happen or can it ever be "real, effective, and scaleable?"
