As the FCA's consultation on Open Finance closes and in the wake of the DCMS statement on Digital Identity, I consider a vision for a route ahead. vinesolutions.co.uk/a-vision… @TheFCA @DCMS

I am delighted that @Origo_Services have donated their profile to Kantara @KantaraNews and hope that it will stimulate interest in the UMA and Fintech communities - another step to putting users and their data control at the centre of design.

I've commented on a David Birch article on open finance on LinkedIn - perhaps you might want to comment on my comment if you like the above? linkedin.com/feed/update/urn…

Vine Solutions is pleased to be again listed today on G Cloud 12 - we are unique in offering "secure service design" to UK public sector. Please see vinesolutions.co.uk/services…

I am supporting @AlzResearchUK’s campaign calling on government to deliver on its promise to double funding for dementia research. alzheimersresearchuk.org/abo… Extract from 2019 manifesto:

And the 24 hr Doc-athlon made it into British Triathlon news. Still time to support international medics MSF Covid19. britishtriathlon.org/news/ju…

My daughter, NHS DR Lydia is doing a 24 hr Doc-Athlon for Medecins Sans Frontieres Covid19 with 3 Dr friends within lockdown rules to help care for people around the globe. #4DR24HR justgiving.com/fundraising/B…

So we 'know' amazon and google 'smile' and 'gorge' on our personal data and hence our lives. Is it really acceptable that our local government actively helps google and others do this? brave.com/ukcouncilsreport/

Why is metadata 'a distant shore'? More considerations on the importance of metadata. This time I argue that it really isn't difficult to start incrementally and benefits will come for users and for services which make up an eco-system. vinesolutions.co.uk/2020/01/…

Thank you for mentioning my contribution. It was an honour to be an independent advisor to @DigitalIDScots, and a pleasure to share ideas with you all last Friday.

Thank you @KennyBirney - very kind. It was a pleasure to independently advise @DigitalIDScots and consider the future of identity, trust and attributes. For #secureservicedesign, please see vinesolutions.co.uk/services….

Meta-data and Prorogation - I consider the connection, and how to avoid 'walking into a room as if with a blank piece of paper'. vinesolutions.co.uk/2019/09/…

Thanks to @thinkdigicon for highlighting Vine Solutions new GCloud offer. #secureservicedesign

We are delighted that public sector can procure "Secure Service Design: proportionate Identity Trust and Risk", through G-Cloud 11, see my post vinesolutions.co.uk/2019/07/… or on GCloud via digitalmarketplace.service.g…

Welcoming a previous report on #blockchain and #ssi eublockchainforum.eu/sites/d… which comments on #eIDAS, and a new discussion paper ec.europa.eu/futurium/en/eid…. IMO needs to consider multiple DIDs (not eidas certs) and issue of Verifiable Claims *BY* eID schemes.

How to integrate DID/VCred into existing relying party ecosystem? Perhaps one way will emerge from this work. Using OIDC's Self Issued provider. One to watch. medium.com/decentralized-ide…

IMO uk & eu need something like this too. Already gdpr is 'click through' pseudo consent with defaults usually set to 'consent to everything' and high friction processes to disable.

Interesting exploration of UK standards for ID on linkedin by @interition linkedin.com/in/worrall, @ZonafideWallet @SalenaWorrall. And now, I've chipped in my 2p worth as comments linkedin.com/feed/update/urn… and also at vinesolutions.co.uk/2019/04/….

Im pleased that the UMA-based architecture is finally being acknowledged, and I'm looking forward to seeing UMA and federated ID drive customer journeys and enable personal control.
