Some have suggested the big social security number hack and leak is a precursor for a digital ID system. They’ve been slow walking this as the original group with OCGFC megacorps was labeled ID 2020, though we do have some states with digital drivers licenses, and Apple and Google are working on it as well. Since the WEF has warned us about major cyberattacks which they’ve been trickling out, I’d look for additional and significant cyber events to persuade the public to accept a digital ID system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But according to NIST, this is just the start and the initial focus of the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The agreement represents an effort to tie in yet more areas of people\u2019s lives in their digital ID (\u201ccustomer identification program requirements\u201d is how NIST\u2019s announcement describes the focus of this particular initiative). These schemes are often criticized by rights advocates for their potential to be used as mass surveillance tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now NIST\u2019s initiative brings together this institution and the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA), California Department of Motor Vehicles, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) \u2013 Science and Technology Directorate, New York State Department of Motor Vehicles, JP Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Microsoft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Among the other participants are companies specializing in digital ID IDEMIA, MATTR Limited, iLabs, SpruceID, and the OpenID Foundation (plus US Bank, and Block Inc.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n They were chosen after submitting a response regarding their capabilities via the Federal Register, and have now received collaborative research and development agreements, known as CRADA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Those who are now in will work within the project\u2019s three phases, dubbed, Define, Assemble, and Build. The first will set the scope of work along with industry participants, the second should produce teams with members from the industry, government, and academia, while the \u201cBuild\u201d phase is to focus on \u201ccreating practical modules and prototypes to address cybersecurity challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n They will now collaborate with NCCoE to speed up the adoption of digital ID standards, a press release said, as well as best practices by developing \u201creference architectures, representative workflows, and implementation guides to address real-world cybersecurity, privacy, and usability challenges faced by the adoption of mDL in the financial sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n NIST\u2019s NCCoE itself is set up as a hub dealing with cybersecurity and often works with government, industry, and academia on developing precisely this type of standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The call to respond to the mobile driver\u2019s license project collaboration was first issued a year ago, in late August 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Some have suggested the big social security number hack and leak is a precursor for a digital ID system.
