The
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) held the third plenary meeting of
its Identity
Theft Prevention and Identity Management Standards Panel (IDSP) April
27-28, 2009 in Arlington, Virginia. The IDSP is a cross-sector coordinating body working to reduce identity theft and fraud
by promoting the development and use of voluntary consensus standards and best
practices.
The April meeting took a point-in-time look at the state of identity theft prevention and
identity management. Panel discussions considered progress made on a number of
fronts and looked ahead at areas that still need attention and that may be ripe
for future IDSP work. Agenda topics included:
best practices for measuring identity theft [see
related article], implementation of the FTC red flags rule, customer
authentication and the use of Social Security numbers, the need for identity
verification guidelines [see
related article], identity assurance life-cycle management, biometric
