IRS990/Desc0Kantara Initiative provides strategic vision and real world innovation for the digital identity transformation. Developing initiatives including: Deepfakes and IDV; Privacy Enhancing Mobile Credentials; User Managed Access; Resilient Identifiers for Underserved Populations; and Anchored Notification and Consent Receipt. Kantara Initiative also maintains the Identity Assurance Trust Framework (IAF) which underpins the assurance program providing third party conformance audits for NIST standard 800-63.3 for the federal Digital Identity Guidelines. The IAF is kept current by the Identity Assurance Work Group. Kantara Initiative develops innovations to solve real world problems for the identity based digital transformation. While connections to digital services and technologies grow, data generated by those connections is a challenge to manage. In the landscape of identity, security, and access technology and policy, varying national approaches and schemes exist. Governments and industry are connecting more and more to leverage their strengths for provision of services. This is the world of borderless IDM, where governments and industry seek to harmonize. Kantara Initiative develops assurance and interoperability programs to support the trust layer of online transactions. Kantara Initiative provides global leadership ensuring that diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) are part of all digital identity solutions and systems. Kantaras DEIA initiative works to establish a uniform terminology regarding DEIA requirements, identifies the return on investment for solution providers to incorporate important DEIA components in their products, and ensures that requirements for DEIA are easy to understand yet robust enough to provide access to service for everyone. Kantara Initiative also runs the third-party conformance assessment program in the US for the NIST 800-63 and also provides certification of requirements for the United Kingdom Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework (DIATF). Kantara Initiative provides educational presentations at digital identity conferences, to members of the Administration, and federal and state agencies on request.
