On July 12, NIST announced Trusted Federal Systems (TFS) as the awardee of a two-year grant to convene the private sector-led Identity Ecosystem Steering Group (IESG) and serve as the group’s administrative arm as it tackles the wide range of policy and technical challenges associated with crafting an Identity Ecosystem Framework.
Additionally, TFS will facilitate collaboration among multiple stakeholders to help drive the creation of consensus standards and best practices that can advance national priorities.
Learn more about the Identity Ecosystem Steering Group, including how you can participate in the proceedings and nominate candidates for leadership roles during the August 14-15, 2012 meeting in Chicago, here: http://www.idecosystem.org/.
