Canada's privacy chief hails Microsoft's Seven Laws of Identity
On surviving the identity Big Bang
By OUT-LAW.com
The Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario has published a plan for automated internet privacy that is backed by Microsoft. Dr Ann Cavoukian has called for programmers to embed privacy capabilities in software.
A Microsoft-led project to create an "identity layer" for the internet created Seven Laws of Identity, which Cavoukian has used as the basis for a paper calling for the laws to be embedded in software. The aim of the project is to help computer users to manage their own identity online.
"Just as the internet saw explosive growth as it sprang from the connection of different proprietary networks, an 'identity big bang' is expected to happen once an open, non-proprietary and universal method to connect identity systems and ensure user privacy is developed in accordance with privacy principles," said Cavoukian.
