- Interested in Identity Management and Credentialing Services or Identity Service Providers.
- Free enrollment at Level 4 Authentication by all Providers.
- Consumer education on need and use of hard token authentication and how to evaluate IdSP.
- Digital Certificates and hard tokens that are built on BE as the method of Consumer Authentication.
- Emphasize the term Consumer Authentication over Consumer Identity as identity is a nebulous concept that can’t be defined.
- As digital profiles are established for every person above a certain age, it would not matter what one's name is, all that would matter is that you've been located and uniquely authenticated.
- Explore the possibility of authoring a series of whitepapers that do the following: Define the term "Consumer Identity" as it relates to other aspects of identity (e.g. employee, citizen, etc.) Explore the privacy implications of a Consumer Identity in that context. Catalog the various technical and policy issues that come into play in the protection of the privacy of a Consumer Identity.
- My interest in Consumer Identity has much less to do with security & privacy and much more to do with personalization, customization and enriching the cyber-experience for those consumers.
- I think the issue that really needs to be covered is what makes a consumer identity compelling to both the consumer and the other stake holders and how a business case can be derived from it that supports transactions that might have anything more than trivial value (eg logging onto a blog).
