- Electronic Identities in Europe: overview of E-ID solutions connecting citizens to public authorities - in pdf format (281kb)
- (This document requires the use of Adobe Acrobat Reader). UL Transaction Security, April 2013. Whitepaper by Iona Bour, Technical Consultant for the ID Management Competence Center. "With the development of eGovernment services, it became handy for citizens to be able to prove their identity online. By doing so, they have access to online accounts associated with their real-life identity, from where they can conduct various transactions with public authorities and possibly also with private parties. Europe shows a great diversity of electronic identity (in short: eID) implementations, varying from the traditional username-password combinations to the more sophisticated smart card solutions..."

"In March 2013, the Federal Government announced the creation of a new management system for secure access to online public services and eGovernment applications. To be able to access the electronic public administration services, users must authenticate themselves and their access permission must be verified. Currently, there are several parallel systems to do this. The Federal Government will soon create an integrated system suitable for all user groups and all eGovernment applications. This system will be safer, more user-friendly and more efficient for the public administration..."

- NSTIC-led ID plan earmarks $4 million to secure state government services
- By John Fontana for Identity Matters. ZDNet, March 28, 2013. "Summary: NSTIC and the Office of Management and Budget hope secure ID credentials add security, accuracy, speed to state, local government benefit programs online. The two-year-old initiative to create an identity layer for the internet is backing a set of projects aimed at creating identity-based security to support state and local government services online. The National Program Office (NPO) of the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace (NSTIC) is working with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to fund at least two projects that would split up to $4 million and be aimed at developing verification systems to support citizen access to any number of services or agencies. A call for project proposals will go out in the next 45 days..."

- Should the UK government be providing services using social identities?
- Posted by Andy Price. Public Technology, 1 March 2013. "You'd assume New York was a pretty hi-tech city what with it being, well, New York. But for a city familiar for being the hub of so many things from fashion, to business, to culture, it shouldn't be a huge surprise that they have a dedicated organisation for shaping IT strategy and policy in the city. That organisation is the Department of Information Technology & Telecommunications – a mayoral agency. And it has an operating budget of $440 million. Its projects include the NYC Open Data initiative, and CITIServ – which aims to reduce the city's infrastructure footprint by consolidating data, and provides a unified set of shared services to city entities. But one of the more exciting things it’s been trying out, is allowing citizens to use existing social identities, whether it’s Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter, to allow them to access city services..."

- Who Are You? Four Trends in Identity Management
- By Gadi Ben-Yehuda. Govexec.com, February 19, 2013. "... As mobile devices and the software they run permeate more spheres of our lives—from our work, to our gym, to the supermarket and restaurants, to doctor’s offices, and our interactions with all levels of government—identity management can become either the keystone bridging our various identities with their respective places and times. Conversely, if we do understand or adhere to a comprehensive identity management scheme, it may become the single point of failure that denies us the benefits of the hybrid world we are creating, where the digital and the material constantly interact. Many people might think of identity management as an issue restricted to online activity only. But, in a recent article I wrote for TechPresident, I said, “identity isn’t just something that should be getting us into our email accounts. There is so much more that a robust identity management system could streamline.” And that is especially true when citizens interact with their government. The convenience of entering our identifying information only once for every interaction can actually be measured in dollars. We simply think about the time it takes (that is—time wasted) filling out the same fields on multiple forms and then multiply that across every form for each citizen..."

- New BC Services Card replaces CareCard
- Ministry of Health; Ministry of Citizens' Services and Open Government, News Release, 2013HLTH0025-000253, February 15, 2013. "Vancouver – British Columbians can now replace their CareCard with the new BC Services Card. 'Starting today, the old CareCard will be replaced by the BC Services Card, a highly secure form of identification,' said Health Minister Margaret MacDiarmid. 'This new card will be a secure piece of photo identification with many anti-fraud and security features including secure design, an expiry date and enhanced features which will help to protect citizens' personal information.' Most adults will need to re-enrol in the Medical Services Plan over the next five years. The easiest way for British Columbians to enrol is to do so when renewing their driver’s licence and opt for the combined card that includes both a driver’s licence and BC Services Card. People who do not drive can still enrol at the nearest location where driver’s licences are issued..."

- Cloud is the next chapter in the government's identity management saga
- By Jason Miller. Federal News Radio, 11 January 2013. "Sometimes it takes time for an idea to germinate. Take the Bush administration's desire for a federated identity management gateway under the E-Authentication initiative. The White House began developing it in 2003 as part of its e-government strategy. E-Authentication struggled to gain traction and OMB refocused it in 2007 with the emergence of Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12. Flash forward to fiscal 2013, the Postal Service issued a draft request for proposals and a final RFP to create and run a Federal Cloud Credential Exchange (FCCX). The system would let citizens log onto federal services using usernames and passwords from third parties, such as Google or PayPal, as long as those companies meet federal standards under the Federal Identity Credential and Access Management framework (FICAM)..."

- Identity Management: A New Way to Fight Health Care Fraud, Waste and Abuse
- By Clint Fuhrman, National Director of Government Health Care Programs, LexisNexis Risk Solutions. Government Technology, December 26, 2012. "... When it comes to moving services online to streamline processes, reduce costs and increase convenience and efficiency, government has seized the moment. Unfortunately, the functionality that yields these benefits is what creates challenges for maintaining the integrity of the system. That said, it is possible to leverage the Internet to its fullest potential, while mitigating negative outcomes. Take the Florida Department of Children and Families, which implemented online self-service portals to augment traditional channels. This move enabled the agency to improve its error rate to -0.5 percent, the best in the nation, while achieving a 250 percent boost in productivity. In fact, 95 percent of clients utilize the online system. Certainly these numbers are impressive, but how are they achieved? The answer is a robust identity proofing management. Government agencies must invest in identity verification and authentication at the front-end of benefit administration. The right identity-proofing strategy must be anchored by robust master data management and rules-based solutions, as well as comprehensive identity management..."
