They've crafted solutions for everyone, from the less tech-savvy to the hearing impaired. It's a remarkable story of diversity and inclusion in the digital world. 🌍🤝 If you're as passionate about digital identity as I am, this is a story you need to hear.

A pan-European digital ID network With a vote of 335 in favor and 190 against, the European Parliament successfully passed #eIDAS2 proposal, paving the way for EU residents to have EU #digitalIDwallets (#EDIW) without relying on private companies for such software. Through an advanced application, citizens will be able to prove their identity and share electronic documents with one click. Along with the EDIW, the regulation offers free #qualifiedelectronicsignatures and wallet-to-wallet interactions. Awaiting the ultimate approval from the Council of Ministers, the EDIW is estimated to be available in 2026. Even though EDIW will be voluntary for citizens to use, the impact on the private parties who are mandated to accept the EDIW, including Financial Services Industry, Large Online Platforms, Digital Infrastructure, Energy, Transportation, Postal Services, Health, Education, will be significant.   https://lnkd.in/gR3utAsq

Day one of #DICE2023 was full of interesting and diverse sessions. Here are some key takeaways from day one of the very first Digital Identity unConference Europe ever in Zürich, where Timo Glastra, Tom Lanser and Ana Goessens are representing Animo 🌟 1. Government-Market relations Government participation is more active than ever. On day 0, DICE started with a fully packed government panel with representation from the USA, Finland, UK, Austria, Switzerland, and Bhutan. Most are actively working to get regulation in place for decentralized identity / self-sovereign identity. Also, it is very telling that many government officials stayed around and are actively participating in sessions and discussions during the entire unConference. 2. OpenID4VC Not surprising for this European event, but there are a lot of discussions about OpenID for Verifiable Credentials (OpenID4VC). The European Architecture Reference Framework adopting OpenID4VC has a big impact on this. Organizations that are mostly focused on issuance and verification seem to prefer it over other communication protocols, such as DIDComm, for its simplicity. This does raise questions from attendees about the future of DIDComm, and whether we aren't giving up all the features DIDComm has to offer, just because most people are mostly focused on issuance and verification of Verifiable Credentials. Paul Bastian also showcased an initial draft of a High Assurance Interoperability Profile using OpenID4VC. https://lnkd.in/grKx4Ps3 3. Focus on building production A lot of technical sessions are focused on the supporting infrastructure and complexities that arise with the implementation of production use cases. Subject binding is a hot topic, as are trust frameworks. There's a general feeling of being tired of the proof of concept phase. Do you have key takeaways not on this list? Or questions about the day? Feel free to comment below! In the meantime we're looking forward to another packed day of information tomorrow!

Two recent reports summarise today's major challenge facing #digitalidentity providers and the enterprises who would consume their services. 1. UK government's Department for Science, Innovation and Technology published their findings report from a public dialogue exercise they ran with a large sample of the general public on trust in digital identity services. The findings broadly point toward distrust in these services, concern over how their personal data will be used and a failure to see the benefit to society at large. https://lnkd.in/eUikmJRY 2. OIX - Open Identity Exchange and Daon published research that enterprises who would consume identity services are presently disengaged and lack a coherent understanding for what digital identity is. https://lnkd.in/eTBG6gA7 These two independent and separate findings are very much different sides of the same coin and need to be addressed. What role can your business play? At the OIX - Open Identity Exchange our members are collaborating to answer the big questions facing digital identity. Join our community and contribute your point of view to our established network of identity service providers and relying businesses.

Interoperability Focus Groups: Empowering Collaboration! Guided by dedicated moderators, our Interoperability Focus Groups (IFGs) encourage active participation from all members of our int:net community.
