Subject: Sector specific IDs - An EU or user requirement
Hi Guys, You may not be aware of this, but on the continent, the privacy issue in eIDs is a core consideration. It has forced the Austrians to even abandon the X.509 certificate, as the Austrians claim you should have one ID for each site (or sector). They currently in some way, create IDs locally to achieve this. http://europa.eu.int/idabc/en/document/3910/5803 presentation http://europa.eu.int/idabc/servlets/Doc?id=19404 and paper (in the proceedings http://europa.eu.int/idabc/servlets/Doc?id=20734). Although I consider privacy less vital, I would not ignore it, since such ideas could become EU standards. I'm rather proposing that the requirements should be studied and agreed-upon before going further. Particularly the idea that you gradually could reduce the myriad of logins you have today and replace them with TTP based ID-solutions seems nice. This should also be very important for commercial certificate vendors, since it could increase eID usage by a mile. Anders Rundgren
