Open Identity Solutions for Open Government

The Open Identity Initiative seeks to leverage existing industry credentials for Federal use. The Initiative approves credentials for government use through our Trust Framework Providers who assess industry Identity Providers (IDPs).

The Trust Framework Provider Adoption Process outlines the process that the ICAM community uses to sanctify organizations that assess commercial identity providers.

Trust Framework Providers: The Scheme Adoption Process outlines the process that the ICAM community uses to develop and/or approve specification profiles for achieving portable identity over the Internet.

Adopted Schemes: Identity Providers:
  • Google - OpenID Foundation, Pilot assessment with NIH in progress
