Requirements for Phase III

1. Trusted Identities in Cyberspace will continue as the primary goal.
2. Users can know that their personal information is:

Open Issues

after discussions with the team here are a few more thoughts:

1. There will be multiple identifier frameworks which have their own set of identity requirements.
2. Some of the frameworks will be IDEF compliant.
3. All IDESG compliant frameworks will provide a machine-readable method to determine if a web site is a member of the framework
4. Especially at the start most frameworks will not be IDEF compliant.
5. How should an IDEF compliant entity deal with identifiers that are:
   1. from within their own framework, ie within Healthcare or within the education internet 2 framework,
   2. from an external framework that is still IDEF compliant, ie a student being transfer from a school client to the healthcare hospital or from a VA hospital with a PIV card to a public hospital that cannot read it
   3. from an external framework is is not IDEF compliant, ie from a social network site like Google, FB, Microsoft, etc.
6. There is no advice available for entities that do not normally interact with the user on recovery and redress
7. No standard has been found that helps to describe how a site with no user connectivity can meet any privacy or security guideline.
