"NIST Launches Collaborative Research Effort on Digital Identity to Support Secure Delivery of Public Benefits"
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has launched a collaborative project to adapt its digital identity guidelines to support public benefits programs, such as those that help beneficiaries pay for food, housing, and more. NIST, together with the Digital Benefits Network (DBN) at Georgetown University’s Beeck Center for Social Impact + Innovation and the nonprofit Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT), will develop resources to help providers balance security, privacy, equity, and usability. This article continues to discuss the collaboration aimed at supporting secure, equitable access to vital public benefits.
