This goal seeks to address the following barriers in the current environment: · Slow implementation pace of identity solutions to provide secure, streamlined access to online services. · Lack of diverse identity solutions capable of operating successfully together. · Lack of secure, convenient, user-friendly options for user authentication and identification. · The high relative implementation and management costs that have prevented a rapid growth in the market for identity and attribute provider services.
