InitiativesTrust and IdentityIdentity Management Consultation Project
To Participate
We are currently recruiting additional participants for the IdMC. If you are interested in participating, and are an IdM expert and/or professional, please contact: J. Trent Adams at adams@isoc.org Phone: +1-703-439-2149 Note: This consultation is being conducted following the Chatham House Rule. Participants are free to use the information discussed, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the author, nor that of any other participant, may be revealed without their permission. For its part, the Internet Society intends to publicly publish a final report following the same rule, releasing the distilled document under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license. The Identity Management Consultation (IdMC) is part of a major initiative on identity being driven by the Internet Society (ISOC). The consultation project begins with a survey of the landscape described by the various Identity Management (IdM) communities. The consultation explores this landscape through a series of conversations with a broad spectrum of stakeholders, from standards body participants through industry professionals, to individual contributors. Each experienced participant comes to the consultation highly recommended within their field. The focus of the consultation is on the end user experience related to online identity issues and how the various IdM technologies and identity communities interrelate. The final output of the IdMC will be the production of a public report on "User-Managed Identity". The report will outline the major IdM solutions currently available and in development, their potential uses cases, and what their active deployment will mean for the end user. Participation in the consultation requires a level of effort and commitment similar to an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) working group. Participants contribute via email list, on scheduled phone conferences, in shared documents, and at periodic meetups. |
