What are the broader implications for the identity industry?
A. The OIDF and ICF believe an open trust framework will lead to an open ecosystem for identity and trust on the Internet. This will not only meet the needs of many other governments besides the United States, but also the needs of many other websites, applications, communities, and industries. In short, it has the potential to become an essential part of the trust fabric of the Web. For more information please see our joint white paper, Open Trust Frameworks for Open Government.
