National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE), a part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is developing cybersecurity guidance to help organizations accelerate the adoption of mobile driver’s license standards and best practices.
MATTR is working with the NIST NCCoE on the Digital Identities-Mobile Driver’s License Project to accelerate the adoption of mobile driver’s license standards and best practices. To realize the full value of mDLs, collaboration is needed to mature standards, best practices, and protocols that safeguard user data while promoting adoption of mDLs.
For this reason, the NCCoE is bringing together stakeholders from across the mDL ecosystem to build out a reference implementation to promote standards and best practices for mDL deployments and to address mDL adoption challenges. NIST does not evaluate commercial products under this consortium and does not endorse any product or service used. Additional information on this consortium can be found at https://www.nccoe.nist.gov/projects/digital-identities-mdl.
“Whether boarding a plane, creating a bank account, or making an online purchase, mobile driver’s licenses (mDLs) and other digital credentials have the potential to improve the way we conduct transactions, both in person and online,” said Bill Fisher, co-lead of the NIST mDL project, NIST NCCoE. “To help realize this potential, the NCCoE is collaborating with more than a dozen partners from across the mDL ecosystem to build out reference implementations and to accelerate the adoption of mDL standards and best practices.”
“MATTR is thrilled to collaborate with the NCCoE and our other partners on this project,” stated MATTR CEO Claire Barber. “Mobile driver’s licenses enable users to operate in both in person and online interactions to achieve high assurance outcomes. We are committed to their development and implementation, in accordance with global standards, enabling confidence and convenience for users.”
Over the next two years the project will produce guidance addressing:
1. Know Your Customer/Customer Identification Program Onboarding and Access which will demonstrate the use of an mDL and/or Verifiable Credentials (VC) for establishing and accessing an online financial account.
2. U.S. Federal Government Credential Service Provider (CSP) and Federation which will demonstrate the use of an mDL and/or VC for establishing a CSP account to access federated agency systems.
3. Healthcare and Electronic Prescribe which will demonstrate the use of an mDL and/or VC for provider access and prescription uses.
