National 'virtual ID card' scheme set for launch independent.co.uk
The Government will announce details this month of a controversial national identity scheme which will allow people to use their mobile phones and social media profiles as official identification documents for accessing public services.
People wishing to apply for services ranging from tax credits to fishing licences and passports will be asked to choose from a list of familiar online log-ins, including those they already use on social media sites, banks, and large retailers such as supermarkets, to prove their identity.
The Cabinet Office is understood to have held discussions with the Post Office, high street banks, mobile phone companies and technology giants ranging from Facebook and Microsoft to Google, PayPal and BT.
Major web sites are able to recognise individuals by their patterns of use, the device they are accessing from and its location.
Details of the “identity assurance” scheme are being finalised amid growing concerns over identity theft and other forms of cybercrime. Foreign Secretary William Hague and Cabinet Office minister Francis Maude, who is at the head of the Identity Assurance Programme, will today (Thurs) meet international experts at the Budapest Conference on Cyberspace.
The Government hopes the identity system will form the basis of a universally-recognised online authentication process for commercial transactions on the Internet...
Members of the Cabinet Office team travelled to the White House in May to exchange ideas with American counterparts working on the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace (NSTIC). The heads of the British and American identity assurance programmes will debate the subject next week in London at the RSA cyber security conference.

re: "official identification...Trusted Identities"
The UK will announce the details this month. The plan is for a "universally recognized" system. The White House is already involved, an international conference in Budapest is currently underway, and another is scheduled for London next week. The White House had previously mentioned a pending roll out of what has to be virtually the same "Trusted Identities" program at the beginning of last year:
Internet "Trusted Identity" Program A Few Months Out 1-8-11 "The Obama administration is currently drafting what it's calling the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace, which Locke said will be released by the president in the next few months. Details about the "trusted identity" project are unusually scarce.
Obviously the American roll-out has been delayed as nothing to speak of has been done since that announcement was made, but it's looking now as if it won't be long before a renewed push is made. With the UK jumpstarting the program, and with the post office, banks, mobile phone companies, Facebook, Microsoft, Google, PayPal, and large retailers such as supermarkets all on board, ready to track and own all the digital data that can be accumulated on every person, Big Brother looks to have everything just about ready for a truly 'global matrix'. Be informed. Rev. 18:4
