Open Identity Trust Framework
Description
" In digital identity systems, a trust framework is a certification program that enables a party who accepts a digital identity credential (called the relying party) to trust the identity, security, and privacy policies of the party who issues the credential (called the identity service provider) and vice versa.
The open identity industry, led by members of the OpenID Foundation (OIDF) and Information Card Foundation (ICF), developed the Open Identity Trust Framework (OITF) model to bring open market dynamics to trust frameworks." (http://openidentityexchange.org/what-is-a-trust-framework)
