Today, Liberty Alliance has publicly announced the release of the Identity Assurance Framework (IAF) and Identity Governance Framework (IGF) Specifications:
"Liberty Alliance, the global identity community working to build a more trust-worthy internet for consumers, governments and businesses worldwide, today announced an industry milestone in driving trust and privacy into enterprise and identity-enabled applications based on the release of the Liberty Identity Assurance Framework (IAF) and the Liberty Identity Governance Framework (IGF). Today’s news is the result of the collaborative development of standardized frameworks and technologies designed to meet cross-industry requirements for policy-based security and privacy systems, with a focus on streamlining the establishment and management of identity and trust across user-driven applications and networks."
I believe this is a first, important steps towards providing a more systemic approach to assurance and privacy management in complex organisational (and cross-organisational) contexts.
