Identity White Paper

  • Limitations of the typical username/password approach

  • Include the functional aspect of using Foundational Identity-based SSO vs social media-based SSO (Google, Instagram, Facebook etc)

  • Elaborate on the concept of the use of Functional ID (PSUT) by other BBs such as Messaging BB

Organization ID

  • Onboarding and creating Functional IDs for Organizations

    • Similarity with Functional IDs for humans

    • How do we build trust among organizations (digital signatures?)?

  • Organization <> Organization, Organization <> Human, and Human <> Human interactions

    • Data sharing and Consent mechanisms

    • Payments

    • Messaging

  • Attributes to be shared

  • Mode of attribute sharing (partially masked, masked, unmasked, signed, encrypted, etc.)

  • Duration of attribute sharing

  • Revoke attribute sharing

How do we onboard more DPGs in GovStack?

  • Adaptors - Who will build them? Countries, GovStack, Joget, DPGs?

  • Functional Compliance vs API Compliance

    • DPGs that only compliant with GovStack Functional Requirements

    • DPGs that are compliant with GovStack API Requirements

  • What will motivate the DPGs to be compliant with GovStack?

    • Business/ROI incentives -

      • GovStack indirect influence by showcasing multiple DPG options for each BB to the countries adopting GovStack, currently only 1-2 DPGs are compliant for each BB

      • Proactive discussions with DPGs to understand their motivation

        • Already established markets; do not need help from GovStack

        • Legacy implementation – Hard to adapt to new standards

Action Items:

  • Add sections in the Identity White Paper as discussed

  • Research on examples of DPGs in a given BB that are Functionally Compliant but not API compliant

  • Think about the Policy Management Framework

  • Functional Identity for Organizations
