Digital Identity Management

Long Term Impact of Digital Identity Management

Digital identity management is at the center of cybersecurity, regulatory compliance and consumer trust which is fundamental for the further development of the Internet Economy. Many organizations are struggling to define a digital identity management program both internally for the enterprise and externally for consumers. As the value, frequency and ease of social and economic online transactions increases following network effect, so does the importance of verifying and authenticating digitally to create a trust-based social and economic activities online

Addressing Compliance Challenges

With increasing global data privacy compliance requirements, organizations are required to comply with legal and audit related mandates such as GDPR, CCPA and NIST cybersecurity framework recommendations. Technology firms have to set the standard to provide trusted interactions between parties in the online and physical worlds. It follows that any organization looking to protect data with digital identities has to balance the need for high assurance with ease of use. This is not an easy balance to achieve yet is required to either begin a transformative effort or more often, unify existing services before embarking on a transformative effort. Skills needed to maintain such a balance range from expertise in User Experience and Service Design to Software Development and Cloud Infrastructure and Security. If the implementing team is missing any of those skills, the experience is likely to end up being sub optimal.

We develop practices aimed to benefit the society at large, including businesses, citizens and the government, and minimize the risks that undermine trusted interactions online. These efforts tend to be at the start of transformations and are crucial to ensure team morale and to maintain project timelines for all dependent projects. Cybersecurity teams are challenged with dealing with legacy IT environments and the resistance to migrating to the cloud.
