A few days ago I wrote about a new Identity Governance Framework (IGF) document available online, “Id Governance – Privacy and Access Policy Market Requirements”, which describes use cases and requirements.
A recent article by Jeremy Kirk, titled “Identity Framework moves into next phase” provides an overview of possible next steps:
“… Those market requirements will be used to develop technical specifications for the Identity Governance Framework (IGF), a set of standard protocols that can be widely used in applications that handle identity information, said Amit Jasuja, vice president of product development for identity management at Oracle, one of Liberty's members. Those technical specifications should be finalized next year. … Eventually, IGF will also be compatible with other identity management specifications, such as OpenID and WS*, and systems like Project Bandit, Project Higgins, and Microsoft's CardSpace. Liberty is also encouraging identity application development projects through Open Liberty, its open-source development site that uses an Apache licensing model, said Brett McDowell, executive director of Liberty.”
More information about Open Liberty and the related IGF project can be found here.
