User centric identity keynote

CEO Province of BC (British Columbia)
Frank Villavicencio Citigroup Global
Bandit Higgins Project Novell
Kim Cameron Microsoft Identity Architect

BC Citizen Centric identity
something we could use for transparency with Obama Open Government initiative
Privacy is a concern here....people will give everything to Amazon, but NOT to a government entity

Talk is about Joe the user Citizen Consumer

Live ID now supports OpenID

there's a new version of Cardspace? Kim Cameron's point is that the industry as a whole needs to do this NOT just Microsoft or Novell, etc

Open Source Identity System

within 2 years all major vendors will support this

enterprise identity will weaken as it moves on the to Internet

OpenID, what else
its OK for low level transactions where there's very little value to hacking it

Microsoft and Google offering OpenID but NOT accepting it

the idea is claims based security...OpenID is a threat to that in thats its not too secure
if it gets more secure its fine

standards based authorizations? Yes....eventually...authentication and authorizations have to be separate
