A9: Other Means of Adoption
Identify Other Means to Drive Adoption of the Identity Ecosystem across the Nation Other Information:
Widespread adoption of more robust identity solutions will likely not occur without comprehensive incentives. The Federal
Government will take steps to evaluate the efficacy of economic incentives to private sector or individuals to spur adoption
of strong, interoperable identity solutions. The Federal Government will consider incentive programs such as tax credits/breaks,
cybersecurity insurance, grant programs, or loans for first adopters. The Federal Government should also analyze how it can
better align identity solution requirements in existing grant programs against the Identity Ecosystem. The Federal Government
will also conduct economic analyses to evaluate needed regulatory changes within critical infrastructure sectors. In particular,
the Federal Government will evaluate risks, costs, and benefits before recommending changes to certain transaction types within
regulated sectors, such as requiring higher levels of authentication for credit card transactions.
